Rozucor Ez 20 Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients:

• Ezetimibe (10 mg): This component works by blocking a protein called Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) in the small intestine. This action prevents cholesterol absorption from food, leading to decreased delivery of intestinal cholesterol to the liver and reduced cholesterol levels in the blood.

• Rosuvastatin (20 mg): This is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, commonly known as a statin. It blocks an enzyme in the liver that is responsible for producing cholesterol. By reducing this enzyme's activity, rosuvastatin decreases cholesterol production in the liver cells. It also increases the number of LDL receptors on liver cells, allowing more removal of bad cholesterol from the bloodstream.
