I was taking Tonact 20 and Ecosprin 150 separately. Tonact 20 costs about rs.200 for 15 tablets. I came across Ecosprin AV 150 containing both above ingredients in single capsule and costing just rs.20 for 10 tablets. This lowers the medicine bill to absolute low. But what is the catch? Does Ecosprin AV 150 have Atorvastatin that is of low quality and that is why they are selling it at such low price or is it genuine medicine at low price because of some other factors? if so, what are the factors? ## Do you have Insurance to help you? If so, the price difference maybe because you insurance company "prefers" you to take the "2 in 1" pill than taking them separately. In my country (i am a phamracist) we don´t have the "2 in 1".

My father is taking Tonact (20mg) And Clopilet A 75 to reduce the level of cholestrol and to prevent from stroke.I heard that Ecosprin AV is a substitute of Tonact and Clopilet A 75.Is it true? ## Ecosprin AV contains the active ingredients Aspirin and Atorvastatin. Learn more Aspirin details here. Learn more Atorvastatin details here. While Clopilet-A contains Clopidogrel and Aspirin to prevent blood clotting. Learn more Clopidogrel details here. Learn more Aspirin details here. And Tonact contains Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol. So, switching to the Ecosprin AV would not be an equivalent, because it doesn't contain the Clopidogrel. Who told you that it was the same? ## I take the medicine Ecosprin 150 and Tonact (20mg) separately. Is it safe for me to take a combination like th...
