Aspirin + Atorvastatin + Ramipril is a cardiovascular protective combination.
Aspirin is an antiplatelet agent. It works by irreversibly blocking an enzyme called cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1). Simply put, it prevents the formation of thromboxane A2, a substance that makes blood platelets stick together and form clots. This helps to reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Atorvastatin belongs to a group of medicines known as statins. It operates by competitively inhibiting an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase, which plays a key role in producing cholesterol in the body. In layman's terms, it reduces the "bad" LDL cholesterol and triglycerides levels while increasing the "good" HDL cholesterol level, helping to prevent heart disease.
Ramipril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. It prevents the body from making angiotensin II, a substance that narrows blood vessels and releases stress hormones increasing blood pressure. By blocking its production, ramipril relaxes and widens blood vessels and reduces blood pressure.
