Atorvastatin Key Facts
What dosages is Atorvastatin available in?
Atorvastatin is available as a 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg, and 80 mg oral tablet.
What is Atorvastatin used for?
Atorvastatin is a statin that is used in the prevention of heart or blood vessel problems (e.g., heart attack or stroke) in high-risk adults (e.g., diabetes, high blood pressure, family history of cholesterol problems) and the treatment of high “bad” cholesterol and triglyceride levels in certain people.
How does Atorvastatin work?
Atorvastatin is a statin. The main way it works is by blocking the enzyme (protein) in your liver that makes cholesterol. As a result, Atorvastatin lowers your “bad” cholesterol (called low-density lipoprotein, or LDL). Atorvastatin can also raise your “good” cholesterol (called high-density lipoprotein, or HDL) levels and lower your triglyceride levels.
