abstract:Polycap is a specific five-in-one fixed dose combination polypill created by Cadila Pharmaceuticals Limited of Ahmedabad, India that combines moderate levels of five different medications in a single, one-a-day pill aimed at reducing/preventing heart attacks and strokes. A prominent 2009 study found that this pill's combination of three blood pressure medications, a cholesterol reducer, and aspirin had cut the risk of heart attack and stroke in half, with no more adverse effects than taking the components separately.
