Lipicure Gold 20 Capsule is taken orally.

Lipicure Gold 20 Capsule combines three active components that work together to manage your cardiovascular health:

• Aspirin (75 mg): This component reduces platelet aggregation and prevents blood clot formation by inhibiting the production of thromboxane A2. Simply put, it makes your blood less sticky, which helps prevent clots that can lead to heart attacks or strokes.

• Atorvastatin (20 mg): Classified as a statin, atorvastatin works by blocking an enzyme in your liver called HMG-CoA reductase. This enzyme is responsible for producing cholesterol in your body. By inhibiting this enzyme, atorvastatin effectively reduces blood cholesterol levels – specifically LDL-cholesterol (often referred to as 'bad' cholesterol), triglycerides and total cholesterol – while slightly increasing HDL-cholesterol (known as 'good' cholesterol).

• Clopidogrel (75 mg): Another antiplatelet agent, clopidogrel works by preventing ADP from binding to its platelet receptor. ADP is a compound that activates platelets, which are blood cells that help with clotting. By blocking ADP, clopidogrel reduces the risk of harmful clot formation.

• Store Lipicure Gold 20 Capsule in a cool, dry place, protected from moisture and light.

• The ideal storage temperature is between 15-30°C.

• Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.

• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Make sure to use the medicine before its expiry date.

• Since Lipicure Gold 20 Capsule is used to manage heart conditions, consider adopting a heart-friendly diet. This includes eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meats, and low-fat dairy products while limiting intake of salt, saturated fats, and trans fats.

• Regular physical activity is also important. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week. However, consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
