The first statin drug, Crestor, will be approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in October 2023.
The drug is expected to enter the U. S. market in 2023.
The FDA announced it’s decision to approve Crestor in the following cases:
Crestor (Crestor CRO) is an oral anti-hypercholesterolemia drug, which was approved by the FDA in August 2023, and is currently in phase 3 clinical studies in patients with high cholesterol and other risk factors. Crestor has been approved by the FDA in several European countries, and is in phase 2 clinical studies in patients with high cholesterol and other risk factors.

Crestor CRO was developed to improve treatment of patients with high cholesterol who have a family history of high cholesterol or at high risk of high cholesterol. Crestor CRO is an oral antihypercholesterolemia drug, which was approved by the FDA in August 2023. Crestor CRO is a lipid-lowering drug, which was approved by the FDA in December 2023. Crestor CRO is a calcium-channel blocker, which is the second most commonly used statin drug in the United States, and is approved by the FDA in November 2023.

Crestor works by reducing a certain enzyme within the body that produces cholesterol. It belongs to a class of medications called statins.
Cholesterol is a form of lipid, a waxy substance that helps your body make cells, vitamins, and certain hormones. It is not inherently bad. Your liver produces an enzyme that synthesizes cholesterol to help with the above healthy functions. Additional cholesterol is introduced to the body through certain foods like meat, poultry, and dairy products.
There are two types of cholesterol: high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and low-density lipoproteins (LDLs). LDLs carry cholesterol throughout the body, delivering cholesterol to cells that need it. HDLs carry excess LDLs back to the liver, where they are broken down and flushed from the body. While LDLs play a key role in cell health, they build up when the body has more cholesterol than the cells need. This buildup turns into plaque in the arteries (blood vessels). As plaque covers the artery walls, the blood vessels become narrow. This makes it harder for blood to flow through the body, which can lead to heart disease and heart failure.
Statins work by reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver, which lowers the overall cholesterol levels in the body. Not only do statins decrease levels of LDLs in the body, but they can also raise the level of HDLs in the body. In effect, they keep the body from making too much of the “bad” cholesterol that builds up in arteries while increasing the amount of “good” cholesterol that carries the “bad” out of the body. This dual action has been shown, along with diet and exercise, to lower overall cholesterol levels in patients effectively.
Crestor (rosuvastatin) can decrease levels of LDLs in the body. Reducing LDLs can also improve cardiovascular health. For many, this is the last resort. Taking multiple types of cholesterol-containing foods – meat, poultry, and dairy – can be life-threatening. Reducing LDLs with other medications can also help prevent complications. Examples include Riociguat (GCa-cept) and Aconogest (GSa-tir). Riociguat is an oral medication that works by reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver. It may also be prescribed for high blood pressure or liver disease.There are several types of rosuvastatin medications, including:
Lopinavir is a protease inhibitor medication that works by inhibiting the protease enzyme that breaks down cholesterol in the liver. This enzyme is responsible for metabolizing cholesterol into its hydrochloride, which is then excreted in the faeces. By blocking the enzyme, Lopinavir reduced the amount of cholesterol in the faeces and prevented the formation of cholesterol within the liver. This medication can also decrease the number of enzymes in the faecalin urine that are responsible for breaking down triglycerides in the blood. When inhibiting the enzyme, Lopinavir reduced the amount of triglycerides in the faeces and prevented the formation of triglycerides in the liver. This medication can also decrease the amount of enzymes in the faecalin urine that are responsible for breaking down triglycerides in the blood.
Lopinavir can also interfere with the absorption of certain nutrients in certain foods. For instance, it can interfere with the absorption of bile acid.

Crestor (Rosuvastatin) is a generic version of Lipitor ( used in treating or preventing a High Cholesterol or TG problem). Rosuvastatin lowers levels of LDLs and TG in the body.Take Rosuvastatin as prescribed by your doctor. Rosuvastatin can be taken with or without food. However, a should be used with a high-fat meal.
Do not drink alcohol while taking Rosuvastatin.
There are several ways to speed up cholesterol removal from the body.Like all medicines, this medicine can cause unwanted side effects. However, these are usually mild and may go away after a while if you do not have conditions or are not taking other medicines. Some of these side effects are more common with furosemide (used to treat heart failure). Other medicines can cause side effects that may be worth avoiding or discuss with your doctor. Some of these are listed below.
************
| Medication Type | Forms | Frequency | Mechanism of Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rosuvastatin | Used to reduce levels of bad cholesterol in the blood vessels in patients with High Cholesterol or TG. | It can be taken as a single dose or as a divided dose in divided doses. | Used in patients with liver or kidney problems as an adjunct to reduced-risk diet. |
In patients with liver or kidney problems, furosemide works by interfering with the production of cholesterol in the liver. This makes it easier for the liver to remove cholesterol from the body. In patients without liver problems, it works by lowering the overall cholesterol levels in the body. Furosemide is used in combination with low-intensity exercise and in patients with high blood pressure who have a “hard” cholesterol (LDL) threshold. Furosemide works by reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver, which makes it easier for the liver to remove cholesterol from the body.
In patients with a hard LDL (good) cholesterol ( TG) threshold, furosemide can help make it more difficult for the liver to remove LDLs from the body. This can help lower the risk of heart attack and stroke in these patients. In patients without hard LDL (NTT) problems, it can help make it more difficult for the liver to remove LDLs from the body.
In patients with a hard triglyceride (FAO) (po indexed in "3.5") problem, furosemide can help make it more difficult for the liver to remove triglycerides from the body.
In patients with a high triglyceride (FAO) (po indexed in "5.7") problem, furosemide can help make it more difficult for the liver to remove triglycerides from the body.
