How it works

Atorvastatin is an HMG‑CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) that reduces cholesterol synthesis in the liver, lowering LDL and triglycerides and modestly raising HDL. Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps reduce oxidative stress; it is sometimes co-prescribed as a supplement, though it is not a primary lipid-lowering agent.
