Lipirov 80mg (Atorvastatin Calcium Trihydrate)

Adult dose

Patients receiving atorvastatin should adhere to a standard cholesterol-lowering diet before and during treatment, and the medication can be taken at any time of day without regard to food. For hyperlipidemia, the recommended initial dose is 10 mg of atorvastatin once daily; however, for patients requiring larger reductions in LDL cholesterol levels, treatment may start at 20 mg or 40 mg once daily. This medication is typically administered at doses ranging from 10 to 80 mg once daily.

This medication may cause unusual symptoms in muscles; thus, if muscle pain or weakness worsens or persists, you must notify your doctor immediately and stop treatment. Patients with poor kidney function or liver disease should exercise extra caution while using this medication and should regularly monitor liver function and muscle status through blood tests. This medication may put stress on the liver, so if symptoms of hepatitis such as nausea, vomiting, or fatigue appear, you should consult medical personnel immediately. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not take this medication and should use appropriate contraception during treatment. Nursing women should also avoid taking this medication as it may be transmitted to the child. The risk of side effects may increase when this medication is taken with certain other medications, so if you are currently taking any other medications, be sure to inform your doctor or pharmacist. Elderly patients or those with decreased renal function are at greater risk for muscle-related side effects, so special caution is required during use. In cases of overdose, there is no specific antidote; treatment should be according to symptoms, and liver function and muscle status should be monitored. Store out of reach of children, and keep the medication securely in its original container.
