Product Description

Product Name: Co-Olesta Tablets 40/12.5mg

Product Form: Tablets

Pack Size: 10s

Manufactured By: The Searle Company

Used For:

  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Co-Olesta is prescribed to help lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension, reducing the risk of cardiovascular events such as stroke and heart attack.
  • Hyperlipidemia (High Cholesterol): It is also used to manage high cholesterol levels, helping to reduce LDL (bad cholesterol) and triglycerides while increasing HDL (good cholesterol).
  • Atorvastatin works by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which plays a crucial role in the synthesis of cholesterol in the liver. This results in reduced levels of LDL cholesterol and total cholesterol in the bloodstream.
  • Hydrochlorothiazide helps reduce blood pressure by promoting the excretion of sodium and water from the body, leading to decreased blood volume and reduced pressure on blood vessel walls.
