ROSUTOR GOLD 10/75MG TAB

About

Rosutor Gold 10/75mg Tablet is a combination medication comprising Rosuvastatin (10mg), Aspirin (75mg), and Clopidogrel (75mg). This triple therapy is prescribed for patients at high risk of cardiovascular events, particularly those who have recently experienced an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent placement. Rosuvastatin, a potent statin, effectively lowers elevated cholesterol levels by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, thereby reducing the risk of atherosclerosis progression. Aspirin and Clopidogrel are antiplatelet agents that work through different mechanisms to prevent platelet aggregation and thrombus formation. Aspirin inhibits COX-1, while Clopidogrel blocks ADP receptors on platelets. The synergistic action of these three drugs provides comprehensive protection against recurrent ischemic events, improving long-term cardiovascular outcomes in vulnerable patient populations.
