How Aspirin + Rosuvastatin works

  • Aspirin is classified as an antiplatelet agent, exerting its effects by inhibiting platelet aggregation and mitigating the risk of thrombus formation.
  • Rosuvastatin is an inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme responsible for catalysing the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate, a pivotal and rate-limiting stage in cholesterol biosynthesis. The action of rosuvastatin results in the reduction of cholesterol levels by augmenting the quantity of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors on the cell, thereby enhancing the uptake and breakdown of LDL.
