Rozavel F 5 Tablet 15 contains two active ingredients:

• Fenofibrate (160 mg): Fenofibrate, a medication known as fibrates, works by activating a specific enzyme in the body. This enzyme decreases the production of triglycerides in the liver and increases their breakdown, resulting in lower blood triglyceride levels. Fenofibrate also slightly increases "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels.

• Rosuvastatin (5 mg): Classified as a statin, rosuvastatin works by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme crucial for cholesterol production in the body. Reducing the production of mevalonate, a precursor of cholesterol, it effectively decreases LDL cholesterol. It also increases the activity of LDL receptors on liver cells, enhancing the uptake and breakdown of LDL cholesterol from the blood.
