Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Tonact 5 Tablet. The medicine inside is the same — the brand name, manufacturer and price are what differ.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Composition of Tonact 5 Tablet

Tonact 5 Tablet contains Atorvastatin (5mg). It belongs to the Statin / lipid modifier class of medicines.

Uses of Tonact 5 Tablet

  • High cholesterol
  • Prevention of heart attack
  • Stroke

Benefits of Tonact 5 Tablet

In High cholesterol
Tonact lowers the 'bad' LDL cholesterol in your blood, slowing the build-up of fatty deposits in your arteries. The benefit builds over months and years rather than being something you feel.
In Prevention of heart attack and stroke
Tonact stabilises the fatty plaques already lining your arteries so they are less likely to rupture and block a vessel. That is what lowers the chance of a heart attack or stroke.

How Tonact 5 Tablet works

Atorvastatin lowers the amount of bad cholesterol your liver makes and helps clear it from the blood, which slows the furring of your arteries.

How to take Tonact 5 Tablet

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, crush or break it unless your doctor has told you to. Take it with or without food, usually in the evening. Taking it at about the same time each day helps you remember. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine is unlikely to cause immediate harm but may increase the risk of muscle and liver injury. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Tonact 5 Tablet

Most side effects of Tonact are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Muscle aches
  • Headache
  • Nausea
  • Constipation or loose motions
  • Raised liver enzymes

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
