Description
Arbi 150mg Tablets contain Atorvastatin 150mg, a medication from the statin class used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Arbi works by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme responsible for cholesterol production in the liver. Regular use helps reduce LDL (bad cholesterol), increase HDL (good cholesterol), and decrease triglycerides, supporting overall heart health.
