Rosuvastatin Calcium is a potent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) used to lower cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It effectively reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) and increases high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), making it a leading choice for the prevention and management of cardiovascular diseases.

At Bluepill Express, we manufacture high-purity Rosuvastatin Calcium API under strict WHO-GMP, ISO 9001:2015, and cGMP-certified facilities. Our API complies with IP/BP/USP/EP standards, ensuring superior quality, stability, and therapeutic effectiveness for global formulations.

Therapeutic Uses

  • Treatment of hypercholesterolemia and hyperlipidemia
  • Reduction of LDL-C, total cholesterol, and triglycerides
  • Increase in HDL-C (good cholesterol)
  • Prevention of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular events
  • Effective for both familial and non-familial hypercholesterolemia

Mechanism of Action

Rosuvastatin inhibits 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, the key enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis.
This results in:

  • Reduced hepatic cholesterol synthesis
  • Upregulation of LDL receptors
  • Enhanced clearance of LDL cholesterol from the bloodstream

Thus, Rosuvastatin promotes a favorable lipid profile, lowering cardiovascular risk.
