Rozustat-ASP Capsule is taken orally.

Rozustat-ASP Capsule contains two active ingredients that work together in your body:

• Aspirin (75 mg): This component works by irreversibly inhibiting an enzyme known as cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1). This action modifies the production of thromboxane A2, a substance that can narrow your blood vessels and promote platelet aggregation, leading to blood clot formation.

• Rosuvastatin (10 mg): This ingredient competitively blocks an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase. This enzyme plays a crucial role in converting HMG-CoA to mevalonate, a precursor of cholesterol. By inhibiting this enzyme, rosuvastatin increases the number of hepatic LDL receptors on cell surfaces, enhancing uptake and catabolism of LDL cholesterol, while also reducing VLDL cholesterol and triglycerides and increasing HDL cholesterol.

• Store Rozustat-ASP Capsule at a cool, dry place, specifically below 25°C.

• Protect it from moisture to maintain its efficacy.

• Keep this medicine out of the reach and sight of children at all times.

• Always check the expiry date before taking Rozustat-ASP Capsule.

• Incorporate heart-friendly foods in your diet. These include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins such as fish.

• Since Rozustat-ASP Capsule is used to manage cholesterol levels, regular exercise such as walking or cycling can help to maintain good heart health. However, always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regime.
