Atorvastatin acts by inhibiting the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme, resulting in a decrease in cholesterol synthesis and an increase in LDL uptake by hepatocytes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eComposition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Lipitor tablet contains 40 mg of atorvastatin as the active ingredient.
