Product Description
Tonact 10 Tablet is a medication that belongs to a class of drugs called statins, used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart diseases. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that can build up in blood vessels, leading to narrowing, which can increase the risk of heart attacks or strokes.
This tablet is commonly prescribed and considered safe for long-term use when taken according to the doctor’s recommendations. It can be taken with or without food and at any time of the day, though it’s best to take it at the same time each day. Since high cholesterol often has no symptoms, it is essential to continue taking the medication as directed, as stopping it can raise cholesterol levels, thereby increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke.
While taking Tonact 10 Tablet, regular monitoring of your cholesterol levels is important. This medication is part of a broader treatment plan that includes a healthy diet, regular physical activity, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol intake, and weight management. You can eat a normal diet while on the medication but should avoid foods high in fat.
Common side effects of this medicine include mild discomforts like constipation, flatulence, indigestion, and abdominal pain. These side effects generally go away after a short period. If they persist or if you experience any yellowing of your eyes or unexplained muscle pain, you should consult your doctor.
Tonact 10 Tablet is not suitable for individuals with liver disease, and it should not be used by pregnant or breastfeeding women as it may harm the developing baby. Diabetic patients should also monitor their blood sugar levels, as the medication may cause an increase in blood sugar. Your doctor may assess your liver function before starting treatment and continue monitoring it throughout the course of your therapy.
