How Cresadex Tablet works

Cresadex 20 Plus Tablet is a combination of two medicines: rosuvastatin and ezetimibe. Rosuvastatin reduces cholesterol production in the liver by inhibiting the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme, leading to lower "bad" LDL cholesterol levels. Ezetimibe complements this by blocking the absorption of cholesterol in the intestines. Together, these actions effectively reduce cholesterol levels and help manage the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
