How Zenostin-CV Capsule IR works
Rosuvastatin belongs to the class of statins, a lipid-lowering medication that blocks an enzyme required in the body to make cholesterol. It lowers the "bad" cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides and raises the "good" cholesterol (HDL). Clopidogrel is a blood thinner that helps prevent blood clots by making platelets less sticky, which can reduce the risk of blockages in the arteries. Together, they help keep the blood flowing smoothly and reduce the risk of heart issues.
