Atorvastatin + Clopidogrel Capsules

Atorvastatin 10 mg and Clopidogrel 75 mg Capsules—CONIVAS-CV 10 Capsule combines Atorvastatin and Clopidogrel drugs for high cholesterol and heart attack prevention. Both drugs belong to blood thinning agents and cholesterol agents that are used to prevent heart stroke and heart attack in the future. Atorvastatin and Clopidogrel Capsules lower the increased level of bad cholesterol and fats in the body, then increase the level of good cholesterol.

A heart attack happens when the blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to your heart get blocked by a buildup of fats and cholesterol. These plaques make the arteries smaller, which causes a condition called atherosclerosis and can lead to coronary artery disease, often resulting in heart attacks. Atorvastatin and Clopidogrel together help lower high levels of bad cholesterol (LDL and triglycerides) and stop blood clots. This helps lower the chances of heart attacks, strokes, and chest pain related to the heart.
