CRESTOR ROSUVASTATIN GENERIC 20 MG 30 TABS

Crestor is used to correct the levels of fatty substances in the blood called lipids, the best known of which is cholesterol. There are different types of cholesterol in the blood, the "bad" cholesterol (LDL-C) and the "good" cholesterol (HDL-C). Crestor lowers the amount of "bad" cholesterol and increases the "good" cholesterol. It works by blocking the production of "bad" cholesterol and improves the body's ability to remove it from the blood. For most people, high cholesterol levels don't affect how they feel because they don't cause any symptoms. However, if left untreated, fatty deposits can form on the blood vessel walls, causing the vessels to narrow. Sometimes these narrowed vessels can become blocked and prevent blood supply to the heart or brain, causing a heart attack or stroke. By lowering your cholesterol levels, you can reduce your risk of heart attack, stroke, or related health problems.
