Description
Rozavel F Tablet is a prescription combination medicine used to control high cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It contains Fenofibrate (160mg) and Rosuvastatin (10mg), two powerful lipid-lowering agents that work together to manage cholesterol and improve heart health. This dual therapy helps lower LDL (bad cholesterol) and triglycerides, while increasing HDL (good cholesterol), thereby reducing the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications.
Rosuvastatin is a statin that blocks the enzyme responsible for cholesterol synthesis in the liver, leading to decreased cholesterol production.
Fenofibrate is a fibrate class medicine that works by increasing the breakdown and elimination of triglycerides from the bloodstream. Together, they offer a synergistic effect for patients who need stronger lipid control than with statins or fibrates alone.
