Hi,

Folvite is folic acid which is a synthetic form of folate, a vitamin B, used to treat or prevent low folate levels, which can lead to certain types of anemia.

Conditions that can cause low folate levels include a poor diet, pregnancy, alcoholism, liver disease, certain stomach/intestinal problems, kidney dialysis, among others.

Atorva is atorvastatin, belonging to the statin group used for lowering the lipid and cholesterol levels in the blood. This helps to prevent heart attack, stroke and blood pressure control.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
