Atorvastatin is a medication used to lower high cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It belongs to a class of drugs called statins, which work by blocking an enzyme involved in cholesterol production in the liver. Atorvastatin helps reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions. It is often prescribed to patients with high cholesterol, diabetes, or a history of heart problems to maintain healthy blood vessels and improve heart health.
