How it Works?
Atorzux AV 75 Capsule contains two active ingredients:
• Atorvastatin (10 mg): This component inhibits HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme crucial for cholesterol synthesis in the liver, thereby reducing blood levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or 'bad' cholesterol.
• Aspirin (75 mg): This ingredient acts as an antiplatelet agent, blocking thromboxane A2 production, which plays a major role in blood clotting, thereby preventing clot formation.
