CAS 287714-41-4: Rosuvastatin
Description:Rosuvastatin is a synthetic lipid-lowering agent belonging to the statin class, primarily used to manage hyperlipidemia and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Its chemical formula is C22H28FN3O6S, and it features a distinctive structure that includes a fluorophenyl group and a sulfonamide moiety, contributing to its potency. Rosuvastatin functions by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme crucial for cholesterol biosynthesis in the liver, thereby lowering levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. The drug is characterized by its high bioavailability and long half-life, allowing for once-daily dosing. It is generally well-tolerated, though potential side effects may include muscle pain, liver enzyme elevations, and gastrointestinal disturbances. Rosuvastatin is often prescribed in conjunction with lifestyle modifications, such as diet and exercise, to enhance its cholesterol-lowering effects. Its efficacy and safety profile make it a widely used medication in the management of dyslipidemia.
