Lipikind-CV 10 Capsule is a combination medicine with two active ingredients:

• Atorvastatin (10 mg): This component acts by selectively and competitively inhibiting an enzyme known as HMG-CoA reductase. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the synthesis of cholesterol in the body. By blocking this enzyme, atorvastatin helps reduce the levels of bad cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood.

• Clopidogrel (75 mg): Belonging to the thienopyridine class of medications, clopidogrel works by inhibiting the P2Y12 ADP receptors on platelets. This prevents the platelets from sticking together and forming clots, thereby reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes. It is important to note that clopidogrel is a prodrug, which means it needs to be converted in the liver to its active form to work effectively.

• Store Lipikind-CV 10 Capsule below 30°C.

• Keep it out of direct light and away from excessive heat or moisture.

• Always seal the container tightly after use to avoid exposure to air.

• Keep this medicine out of reach and sight of children.

• Limit your intake of fatty foods. Since Lipikind-CV 10 Capsule is used to manage high cholesterol, a low-fat diet can help enhance its effectiveness.

• Avoid smoking and limit alcohol consumption. Both these habits can increase your risk of heart disease and stroke, which Lipikind-CV 10 Capsule is used to prevent.
