Medicinal Benefits

  • Rozucor F 5 Tablet is a combination medicine primarily used to manage abnormal lipid/cholesterol levels in the blood.
  • It helps lower high levels of triglycerides (a type of fat) in the blood, which reduces the risk of pancreatitis and cardiovascular disease.
  • Effectively reduces elevated cholesterol levels, especially low-density lipoprotein (LDL or 'bad cholesterol').
  • Balances abnormal lipid profiles by lowering triglycerides and LDL, while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL or 'good cholesterol').
  • It increases the uptake and breakdown of LDL cholesterol in the liver and suppresses the production of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), thereby reducing overall bad cholesterol levels in the blood.
  • Rozucor F 5 Tablet enhances the activity of lipoprotein lipase, an enzyme that breaks down fats in the bloodstream. It also helps reduce uric acid levels by promoting its excretion through urine.
  • It reduces the chances of complications such as heart attack, stroke, and angina (chest pain due to reduced blood flow to the heart) due to high cholesterol levels.

How Rozucor F 5 Tablet Works

Rozucor F 5 Tablet contains Rosuvastatin (statin) and Fenofibrate (fibric acid derivative). Rosuvastatin lowers the levels of raised lipids known as cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood and increases the good cholesterol (HDL) by blocking the body's production of bad cholesterol. It also improves your body's ability to remove it from your blood. On the other hand, Fenofibrate works by lowering the level of triglycerides in the blood. Together, Rozucor F 5 Tablet helps treat high cholesterol/lipid levels.
