FIBATOR LS TABLET 10'S

How FIBATOR LS TABLET 10'S Works

• FIBATOR LS TABLET 10'S is a combination medication designed to address high cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It combines the power of a fibrate (Fenofibrate) and a statin (Atorvastatin) to provide a comprehensive approach to lipid management.
• Atorvastatin, the statin component, primarily works by inhibiting an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase. This enzyme is crucial in the production of cholesterol in the liver. By blocking this enzyme, Atorvastatin reduces the amount of cholesterol the liver produces. This leads to a decrease in LDL-cholesterol ('bad' cholesterol) levels in the blood. Simultaneously, Atorvastatin can modestly increase HDL-cholesterol ('good' cholesterol) levels and lower triglycerides.
• Fenofibrate, the fibrate component, works through a different mechanism. It activates a protein called PPARalpha (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha). Activation of PPARalpha leads to increased breakdown of triglycerides and increased production of HDL-cholesterol. Fenofibrate primarily focuses on reducing triglyceride levels and increasing HDL-cholesterol, complementing the effects of Atorvastatin.
• The combined action of Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate in FIBATOR LS TABLET 10'S provides a synergistic effect. Atorvastatin lowers LDL-cholesterol, while Fenofibrate primarily lowers triglycerides and increases HDL-cholesterol. This dual action helps to comprehensively manage dyslipidemia (abnormal lipid levels) and reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke. By reducing LDL-cholesterol, Atorvastatin prevents build-up of plaque in the arteries, and fenofibrate by lowering triglycerides prevents thickening of blood. This collective action provides more healthy heart
