Novastat Ez 40 Tablet works by combining the actions of two active ingredients:

• Rosuvastatin (40 mg): Classified as a statin, rosuvastatin works by inhibiting an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase in your body. This enzyme is responsible for producing cholesterol in your liver. By blocking its action, rosuvastatin effectively reduces the amount of cholesterol made by your body.
• Ezetimibe (10 mg): This ingredient acts as a cholesterol absorption inhibitor. It blocks the absorption of dietary and biliary cholesterol in your small intestine. As a result, less cholesterol reaches your liver, prompting it to remove more cholesterol from your blood.

Together, these two components help to manage high cholesterol levels by decreasing cholesterol absorption in the intestines and reducing cholesterol production in the liver.
