Lestor 10mgis a medication that belongs to a class of drugs called statins. It is primarily used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood. High levels of cholesterol, especially LDL cholesterol (commonly referred to as "bad" cholesterol), can increase the risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions.

By inhibiting an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase, rosuvastatin reduces the production of cholesterol in the liver. This leads to a decrease in LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels, while also increasing the levels of HDL cholesterol (known as "good" cholesterol).

Rosuvastatin is typically prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes dietary changes, exercise, and lifestyle modifications. It is important to take rosuvastatin as directed by your doctor and to follow a healthy lifestyle to achieve the best results in managing cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Regular monitoring of cholesterol levels and liver function may also be recommended while taking rosuvastatin.
