How Nudoic 180 Tablet Works

Nudoic 180 Tablet contains bempedoic acid, a cholesterol-lowering medicine that works by blocking an enzyme in the liver called adenosine triphosphate-citrate lyase (ACL). This enzyme plays an important role in the body's cholesterol production process. By blocking ACL, Nudoic 180 Tablet reduces the amount of cholesterol produced by the liver. In response, the liver removes more low-density lipoprotein (LDL), also known as 'bad' cholesterol, from the bloodstream. This helps lower LDL cholesterol levels and supports better cardiovascular health.
