How it works
From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Rosuvastatin Calcium). It describes the substance, not this exact product.
Rosuvastatin is an inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme that converts 3‑hydroxy‑3‑methylglutaryl coenzyme A to mevalonate, a precursor of cholesterol.
Rosuvastatin is not extensively metabolized; approximately 10% of a radiolabeled dose is recovered as metabolite.
Following oral administration, rosuvastatin and its metabolites are primarily excreted in the feces (90%).
Effect of food Administration of rosuvastatin with food did not affect the AUC of rosuvastatin.
