Verified Ingredients and Effects

Composition:

FENOFIBRATE-145MG + ROSUVASTATIN-10MG

Uses:

Treatment of Hypertriglyceridemia, Hypercholesterolemia, and Mixed dyslipidaemia.

Medicinal Benefits:

Lipirose-F 10 Tablet is beneficial for patients with Hypertriglyceridemia (high level of triglycerides), Hypercholesterolemia (high level of cholesterol), and Mixed Dyslipidaemia (elevated level of triglycerides – TG, low-density lipoprotein – LDL, and low level of high-density lipoprotein – HDL). Rosuvastatin first increases the LDL (bad cholesterol) in the liver cells for uptake and breakdown. Then, it stops the synthesis of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) made by the liver to reduce the total number of bad cholesterols (LDL and VLDL). Fenofibrate works by increasing the enzyme (a natural substance) that breaks down fats or lipids present in the blood. Besides this, Fenofibrate also reduces the raised uric acid levels by increasing the excretion of uric acid through urination. It is also prescribed to diabetes patients with an increased level of lipid and cholesterol to minimize cardiovascular risks like heart attack, stroke, and heart-related chest pain (angina).
