I've Been Taking Astorvastatin For Years And The Pill Bottle

I've been taking astorvastatin for years and the pill bottle always said astorvastatin 40 mg tablet. I pick up my meds today, and the bottle read atorvastatin calcium tablet 20 mg, is this something different? ( the doctor lowered my dose from 40 to 20 mg) or has there always been calcium in the atorvastatin?
