A four-in-one polypill that combines three blood pressure medications with a cholesterol-reducing drug would lower the risks of heart attack and stroke by 20-40%, doctors from nine countries, including from Bengaluru, reported on Saturday.
The polypill can be consumed alone or with aspirin with varying benefits. If taken alone, it can reduce the chances of heart attack, stroke or angioplasty by around 20% but with aspirin such chances are reduced by 40%.
