Staars 20mg Tablet contains Rosuvastatin, which belongs to a class of medications known as statins. Rosuvastatin is used to lower levels of “bad” cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol or LDL-C) and triglycerides in the blood while increasing levels of “good” cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol or HDL-C). It is also prescribed to reduce the risk of heart-related complications in individuals at risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Features:
- Cholesterol reduction: Rosuvastatin works by inhibiting an enzyme in the liver responsible for cholesterol production, thereby lowering LDL-C and triglyceride levels in the blood.
- Cardiovascular protection: Staars 20mg Tablet helps reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular events in individuals with elevated cholesterol levels or other risk factors for heart disease.
- Once-daily dosing: Typically, Staars 20mg Tablet is taken orally once daily, with or without food, for optimal effectiveness.
Uses:
- High cholesterol: Staars Tablet is prescribed for the treatment of high cholesterol levels (hypercholesterolemia) in individuals who have not adequately responded to dietary and lifestyle modifications.
