Atorvastatin works by inhibiting the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme, which is a key step in cholesterol synthesis in the liver, resulting in a decrease in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglyceride concentrations, and an increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eComposition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Lipitor tablet contains 20 mg of atorvastatin as the active ingredient.
