Ruvastin 10 mg is a lipid-lowering medication that contains Rosuvastatin Calcium, a potent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (commonly known as a statin). It is used to lower high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, and help prevent conditions such as heart attack and stroke.
By inhibiting the enzyme responsible for cholesterol synthesis in the liver, Ruvastin 10 mg effectively reduces LDL (bad cholesterol) while increasing HDL (good cholesterol). It is a first-line treatment for hypercholesterolemia, mixed dyslipidemia, and familial hypercholesterolemia, and it plays a key role in slowing the progression of atherosclerosis.
