Product Introduction
Astin 40 Tablet is a medication belonging to the class of drugs known as statins. It is used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks and strokes. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that accumulates in your blood vessels, leading to narrowing and blockages that can result in serious heart-related conditions. By lowering “bad” cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides, Astin 40 Tablet helps prevent these problems and promotes long-term heart health.
It is crucial to follow your doctor’s prescribed dose of Astin 40 Tablet and take it consistently as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, which should also include a healthy diet, regular exercise, and lifestyle modifications. Although this medication can be taken at any time of day, it is advisable to take it at the same time each day to maintain a consistent routine. Even if you feel well, continue taking the medicine to manage your cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke.

How It Works
Astin 40 Tablet works by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which is essential for the production of cholesterol in the liver. By blocking this enzyme, Astin 40 Tablet reduces the levels of “bad” cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides while raising “good” cholesterol (HDL), thereby improving heart health and reducing the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular diseases.
