What is Atorvastatin?

Atorvastatin is a drug that works by lowering your cholesterol levels. The medicine must be taken daily and it is typically prescribed over a long period. The drug inhibits the formation of endogenous cholesterol in the liver, so it is a useful supplement for cholesterol prevention. People with high cholesterol levels are at a higher risk of arteriosclerosis, which can lead to coronary heart disease, including stroke. Atorvastatin is a drug that successfully reduces the body's production of cholesterol, lowering the risk of arteriosclerosis.

The consequences of high cholesterol levels

Too much cholesterol in the blood can be very damaging for your health. Although cholesterol is a vital substance, it can develop a harmful effect due to poor nutrition. In order to improve bad cholesterol levels, one can change the diet and reduce the body's cholesterol production using the appropriate medication.

Types of Cholesterol – LDL and HDL

There are two different types of cholesterol. It is important to lower the "bad" type called LDL and the triglycerides that your body stores in fat cells. On the other hand, you want to increase your "good" cholesterol, HDL, which helps to get rid of the LDL cholesterol.

When does cholesterol become harmful?

As with so many things, the amount of a substance determines whether it has a positive or a negative impact on our bodies. This rule applies to cholesterol levels, too. When there is too much cholesterol in your blood, it means that the receptors of the cells that normally pick it up fail to filter out enough cholesterol from the blood. While HDL cholesterol has no negative effects on our body, the value of LDL cholesterol should not be too high, as it can cause harmful effects, like arteriosclerosis.

The effect of Atorvastatin

The mode of action of the cholesterol-lowering agent is a mechanism that takes place in the highly complicated process of cholesterol production in the liver. This active substance in the drug, statin, ensures that the liver eventually produces less cholesterol. To clarify, Atorvastatin inhibits the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase that mainly reduces the production of LDL cholesterol, which can lead to arteriosclerosis. HDL cholesterol, which is not harmful, will be affected less by the effect of the medication. In some cases, its production may even increase, making the effect of the drug even more beneficial.

Dosage

The drug should be prescribed when the cholesterol levels are very high and cannot be significantly reduced through a healthy diet, exercise, and weight loss. The cholesterol-lowering agent is usually taken over a long time since the effect unfolds in the long-term as levels of cholesterol in the blood change only over a long period.

In most cases, a daily dose of 10 to 80 milligrams is prescribed. The drug is taken in the form of tablets, every day, in the evening.

Side effects

Atorvastatin is a drug with relatively few side effects - which makes it very safe to use.

However, the following side effects may occur occasionally:

  • Headache
  • Levels of other enzymes might change in the liver
  • Muscle pain Pregnant women and children under 10 years should not take Atorvastatin.
If any of the above or other side effects occur, tell your doctor immediately. Read the leaflet for detailed information on the side effects, contraindications and drug interactions.

Drug Interactions and Contraindications

Interactions can occur if you are taking the drug with an anticoagulant at the same time.

  • Taking Digoxin for heart failure
  • Taking the pill with the hormones Norethisterone and Ethinylestradiol.
  • Together with Danazol or Fibrates and Nicotinic acid it suppresses the immune system.
  • There is a particular risk of concomitant use of atorvastatin with Ciclosporin.
  • Atorvastatin should not be taken in conjunction with certain antibiotics, such as Erythromycin, Clarithromycin, and Fusidic acid.
  • Also, in the case of Atorvastatin therapy, the consumption of grapefruit should be avoided altogether, since this fruit can dramatically increase the effect of the drug. The consequence is an increased occurrence of the corresponding side effects.
