How Tonact-ASP 75 Capsule Works
Tonact-ASP 75 Capsule combines two active ingredients:
- Atorvastatin works by reducing the production of “bad” cholesterol (LDL) in the liver, while increasing “good” cholesterol (HDL). This helps prevent the buildup of plaque in blood vessels, lowering the risk of heart disease and stroke.
- Aspirin acts as an antiplatelet agent by preventing blood clots. It reduces the ability of platelets to stick together, preventing the formation of clots that could block blood vessels and cause heart attacks or strokes.
