Can Storfib Be Consumed Instead Of Atorvastatin?

Hi doc,
My husband takes Atorvastatin 80mg 1/2 tab daily once, but due to insurance problem he is not able to get this medicine. Can he get similar tabs from India like Storfib 145 from India and use. He has undergone coronary bypass surgery 2yrs ago.

Hi,

Atorvastatin is better than Storfib, but if you don't have any other choices, you can take Storfib.
