Zivast-10 Tablet is primarily used to manage high cholesterol levels in the body, which can help reduce the risk of heart diseases. This medicine belongs to a group of medicines known as statins.
In addition to this principal use, this tablet also plays a role in managing abnormal levels of lipids in the blood, a condition known as dyslipidemia. It reduces not only the 'bad' cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides in your blood but also increases the 'good' cholesterol (HDL). This aids in reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes, especially in patients with a family history of heart disease or long-term health conditions like diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis.
