Introduction
Conchol-C 10 Capsule is a combination of two medicines used to prevent heart attack, angina, and stroke. This medicine reduces the 'bad' cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides (fats) levels. Moreover, it also decreases the formation of harmful blood clots.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Conchol-C 10 Capsule may be taken with or without food but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
How it works
Rosuvastatin is a lipid-lowering medication that blocks an enzyme required in the body to make cholesterol. It lowers the 'bad' cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides and raises the 'good' cholesterol (HDL). Aspirin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with anti-platelet action. It prevents the platelets from sticking together and decreases the formation of harmful blood clots. This way Conchol-C 10 Capsule prevents blockade of blood vessels and reduces risk of heart attack, angina, or stroke.
