Crestor 10 mg Tablet contains rosuvastatin (10 mg), which acts on the body in the following ways:

• Inhibits HMG-CoA reductase: Rosuvastatin works by blocking an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase in your liver. This enzyme plays an important role in producing cholesterol inside your body.

• Increases LDL receptors: Rosuvastatin increases the number of LDL receptors on liver cells, enhancing the uptake and breakdown of LDL (bad) cholesterol from the bloodstream.

• Reduces VLDL production: By inhibiting the liver's production of VLDL, a precursor to LDL, rosuvastatin reduces the total number of VLDL and LDL particles in circulation.

Through these mechanisms, rosuvastatin effectively manages total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and ApoB while gradually increasing HDL cholesterol levels.
