Aztolet 20 Tablet contains two active ingredients:

• Atorvastatin (20 mg): As a member of the statin family, this ingredient works by reducing the levels of LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in your blood, while simultaneously increasing HDL cholesterol levels. Lowering LDL cholesterol helps prevent clogging of the arteries, which can lead to heart attacks and strokes.

• Clopidogrel (75 mg): This antiplatelet ingredient prevents platelets, which are a type of blood cell, from sticking together and forming clots. Blood clots can block arteries and cause heart attacks or strokes. By inhibiting platelet aggregation, clopidogrel reduces the risk of these life-threatening events.

• Do not expose the packaging to extreme temperatures or damp conditions.

• Always keep Aztolet 20 Tablet out of sight and reach of children.

• Use the medicine before the expiration date printed on the pack.

• Incorporate a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet into your daily meals. Opt for fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while avoiding high-fat and oily foods. This supports Aztolet 20 Tablet's role in managing LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels.
