Introduction :

Atovastatin 10mg is used together with a proper diet to lower bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides (fats) in the blood, and to increase your good cholesterol (HDL) Aspirin 150mg, a blood thinner, that prevents the formation of blood clots and the existing ones from growing bigger in size.

A heart attack or stroke may occur when a blood vessel is blocked by a blood clot.
