Creston EZ (10 mg) | ঔষধের দাম ও নির্দেশিকা

ব্যবহার

Rosuvastatin, an HMG CoA-reductase inhibitor (statin), and Ezetimibe, a dietary cholesterol absorption inhibitor, combination is indicated in adults: As an adjunct to diet in patients with primary non-familial hyperlipidemia to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Alone or as an adjunct to other LDL-C lowering therapies in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) to reduce LDL-C.

ফার্মাকোলজি

Rosuvastatin: Rosuvastatin lowers plasma cholesterol and lipoprotein levels by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase and cholesterol synthesis in the liver and by increasing the number of hepatic LDL receptors on the cell-surface to enhance uptake and catabolism of LDL; Rosuvastatin reduces LDL production and the number of LDL particles. Ezetimibe: Ezetimibe reduces blood cholesterol by inhibiting the absorption of cholesterol by the small intestine. The molecular target of ezetimibe has been shown to be the sterol transporter, which is involved in the intestinal uptake of cholesterol and phytosterols.
