Stator 10 Tablet

Stator 10 Tablet is a prescription tablet that contains atorvastatin 10 mg in each tablet. It belongs to the statin class, which is used to help lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and triglycerides while raising HDL (“good”) cholesterol in appropriate patients. Stator 10 Tablet is also used to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular events in people who need cholesterol-lowering treatment.

How it works: Atorvastatin in Stator 10 Tablet blocks an enzyme in the liver that helps make cholesterol, so the liver removes more LDL from the blood. Because it is a tablet, the medicine is taken by mouth and then absorbed into the body to work over time, not immediately after one dose.

Stator 10 Tablet is the lower-strength atorvastatin tablet in this product line, alongside Stator 20 Tablet, Stator 40 Tablet, and Stator 80 Tablet. A doctor may choose Stator 10 Tablet when a smaller starting dose is appropriate, when a patient needs gentler cholesterol lowering, or when dose adjustments are being made based on lab results and tolerance.

• High LDL cholesterol
• Mixed dyslipidemia
• High triglycerides
• Lowering cardiovascular risk

• Swallow Stator 10 Tablet whole with a glass of water.
• Take it once daily exactly as your doctor prescribes, at the same time each day if possible.
• You may take it with or without food.
• Do not crush, split, or chew the tablet unless your doctor or pharmacist tells you to.

• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is close to the next dose; do not double up.

Each Stator 10 Tablet provides atorvastatin 10 mg. It is usually taken once daily, and the exact dose may be adjusted by the prescriber based on cholesterol goals, response, and side effects; do not take more than the amount your doctor recommends in 24 hours. Higher doses of atorvastatin are available in this brand line, so Stator 10 Tablet is not the right choice to self-escalate without medical guidance.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

• Tell your doctor if you have liver disease or a history of liver problems before using Stator 10 Tablet.

• Avoid heavy alcohol use, since atorvastatin can add stress to the liver.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding are generally not appropriate times to use atorvastatin unless a clinician specifically directs it.
