Rosuvas EZ 10mg Tablet

Rosuvas EZ 10mg Tablet contains two active ingredients, Rosuvastatin and Ezetimibe, in a single tablet. Rosuvastatin belongs to the group of medicines called HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins), while Ezetimibe belongs to the class known as 2-Azetidinones. This combination is used to lower total cholesterol, LDL (bad cholesterol), and triglyceride levels in the blood, while also helping to increase HDL (good cholesterol). It is prescribed for patients whose cholesterol levels are not adequately controlled by diet alone and for individuals with heart disease.

Reduces total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels in the blood.

This medicine reduces your cholesterol in two ways: it reduces the cholesterol absorbed in your digestive tract and the cholesterol your body makes by itself. Rosuvastatin is an HMG CoA-reductase inhibitor; it increases the number of hepatic LDL receptors on the cell surface to enhance the uptake and breakdown of LDL and inhibits hepatic synthesis of VLDL (very low-density lipoprotein), thereby reducing the total number of cholesterol levels. Ezetimibe inhibits cholesterol absorption in the small intestine; it localizes at the brush border of the small intestine and decreases the delivery of intestinal cholesterol to the liver; this reduces hepatic cholesterol stores and increases cholesterol clearance from the blood.
