Astin tablets are used to help lower harmful cholesterol levels in the blood. Astin works by inhibiting an enzyme responsible for producing cholesterol in the liver, which leads to a reduction in the accumulation of fats in the arteries and a reduction in the risk of heart disease. This medication is taken orally in a dose determined by the doctor based on cholesterol levels and other risk factors. The patient needs to adhere to a healthy diet during the treatment period to achieve the best results.
Astin may cause some mild symptoms such as muscle pain or digestive disorders. It may rarely affect liver function, so it is recommended to conduct periodic tests while using the medication.
