About Tozuclon AS 20/150 Capsule

Tozuclon AS 20/150 Capsule is used for the prevention of heart attack and stroke. A heart attack generally refers to a blocked flow of blood to the heart due to the blockage of the arteries. The blockage is most often a buildup of fat, cholesterol and other substances, which form a plaque in the arteries that feed the heart (coronary arteries).

Tozuclon AS 20/150 Capsule is composed of rosuvastatin and aspirin. This medicine reduces the bad cholesterol (also known as low-density lipoproteins or LDL), and triglycerides (TG). It also collectively prevents the formation of clots in the blood vessels. Together, Tozuclon AS 20/150 Capsule helps to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart-related chest pain (angina).
