Overview
Rovista 10mg Tablet contains the active ingredient ROSUVASTATIN, which belongs to a class of medications known as statins. It is prescribed to lower elevated levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes.
Rosuvastatin
