Rozustat-ASP Capsule

Introduction

Rozustat-ASP Capsule is a combination medication that contains Atorvastatin (10 mg) and Aspirin (75 mg). Atorvastatin is a statin that helps lower cholesterol levels, while Aspirin acts as an anti-platelet agent to reduce the risk of blood clots. This combination is primarily used to manage cardiovascular conditions, reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and lower the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Uses of Rozustat-ASP Capsule

• Management of hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol and triglycerides).
• Reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases, including heart attacks and strokes.
• Used in patients with a history of coronary artery disease (CAD).
• Prevents the formation of blood clots and reduces the risk of cardiovascular complications.

How Rozustat-ASP Capsule Works

Rozustat-ASP Capsule works through a dual-action mechanism. Atorvastatin lowers cholesterol levels by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which is responsible for the production of cholesterol in the liver. Aspirin, on the other hand, inhibits platelet aggregation, reducing the risk of clot formation and improving blood flow.

Benefits of Rozustat-ASP Capsule

• Efficiently lowers LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglycerides while raising HDL (good) cholesterol.
• Reduces the risk of cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes.
• Helps in managing atherosclerosis and reducing plaque buildup in blood vessels.
• Combines two important mechanisms—cholesterol reduction and anti-platelet action—into one capsule.
• Improves overall heart health and circulation.

• Take Rozustat-ASP Capsule exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
