About
Rosuvastatin 20mg/Fenofibrate is a potent combination therapy indicated for the aggressive management of severe mixed dyslipidemia, particularly in adult patients who require substantial reduction of both elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and very high triglyceride levels. Rosuvastatin, a high-intensity statin, significantly lowers LDL-C, total cholesterol, and triglycerides, while also effectively increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) by inhibiting cholesterol synthesis. Fenofibrate, a fibric acid derivative, is highly effective in reducing very high triglyceride levels and increasing HDL-C through its action on peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα). This combination provides a comprehensive and powerful approach to normalize complex lipid profiles, thereby substantially reducing the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and its associated complications, offering robust lipid management.
