STATOR ASP 75 10

About

Stator ASP 75 is a combination medication containing Atorvastatin and Aspirin, designed for comprehensive cardiovascular risk management and the prevention of atherosclerotic events. Atorvastatin is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) that effectively lowers elevated total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides, while modestly increasing HDL-cholesterol. It works by inhibiting cholesterol synthesis in the liver, thereby reducing the amount of cholesterol available for incorporation into lipoproteins. Aspirin, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with potent antiplatelet properties, irreversibly inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) in platelets, preventing the formation of thromboxane A2, a potent platelet aggregator. This dual action helps to stabilize atherosclerotic plaques, prevent the formation of dangerous blood clots, and significantly reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, and the need for revascularization procedures in high-risk patients with established cardiovascular disease or multiple risk factors.

Uses

• Prevention of cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.
