RXTOR 10 TABLET 10 contains rosuvastatin (10 mg). This active ingredient works in the following ways:

• Blocks HMG-CoA reductase: Rosuvastatin works by inhibiting an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase in your body. This enzyme is critical for producing cholesterol.
• Reduces blood cholesterol: By inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, rosuvastatin effectively reduces the amount of cholesterol produced by your body.
• Increases LDL receptors: This medication increases the number of hepatic LDL receptors on the liver cells, enhancing the uptake and breakdown of bad cholesterol.
• Decreases VLDL particles: It also inhibits the liver's production of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), thereby reducing these particles' total number in your blood.
