Description
Tavist 10mg Tablets – Statin for High Cholesterol & Cardiovascular Risk Reduction
Tavist 10mg Tablets are a prescription statin medicine manufactured by Macter International, used for the management of hypercholesterolaemia (high cholesterol) and as part of cardiovascular risk reduction therapy. Statins work by competitively inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in hepatic cholesterol biosynthesis. This reduction in liver cholesterol production triggers upregulation of LDL receptors, increasing the clearance of LDL (low-density lipoprotein or "bad" cholesterol) from the bloodstream.
Tavist 10mg effectively lowers LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while modestly raising HDL (high-density lipoprotein or "good" cholesterol). By correcting the lipid profile, it significantly reduces the risk of myocardial infarction (heart attack), ischaemic stroke, and coronary artery disease — particularly important for patients with diabetes, hypertension, or a family history of cardiovascular events.
Statins are most effective when combined with a heart-healthy lifestyle including a low-saturated-fat diet, regular aerobic exercise, and smoking cessation. Tavist 10mg is typically taken once daily, with or without food, and is a long-term therapy. For broader cardiovascular and metabolic support, see our General Medicines collection. Patients who also require blood sugar control may find value in reviewing our Silo 50mg (Sitagliptin) for diabetes management.

FAQs
How quickly will my cholesterol improve?
Measurable improvements in LDL levels are typically seen within 4–6 weeks of consistent daily use.
Can I stop once my cholesterol is normal?
No — stopping causes cholesterol to return to previous levels. Statins are usually long-term therapy. Never stop without your doctor's advice.
What are the common side effects?
Muscle aches, headache, and mild digestive upset can occur. Rarely, more serious muscle breakdown (rhabdomyolysis) may occur. Report persistent muscle pain to your doctor.
Can I take it with grapefruit?
Grapefruit juice can interact with some statins by increasing blood levels. Discuss this with your doctor or pharmacist.
Is a prescription required?
Yes. Tavist 10mg is a prescription-only statin medicine.
