REVOSTATIN EZ 10

Revostatin EZ 10 is a fixed-dose combination tablet with two cholesterol-lowering medicines in one:

• Rosuvastatin 10 mg, a statin that works in the liver
• Ezetimibe 10 mg, which works in the small intestine

Cholesterol in your blood comes from two places: your liver makes it (the larger share) and you absorb it from food and bile in your gut. A single medicine usually targets only one of these routes. This combination blocks both.

How rosuvastatin works: It inhibits an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase, which the liver needs to produce cholesterol. With less cholesterol made internally, the liver pulls more LDL ("bad" cholesterol) out of the bloodstream.

How ezetimibe works: It blocks a transport protein (NPC1L1) in the intestinal lining, so less cholesterol from diet and bile enters the body.

The combined effect: Adding ezetimibe to a statin typically lowers LDL cholesterol by roughly a further 15 to 20% compared with the statin alone. For many patients, this can mean reaching the LDL target without pushing the statin to a very high dose.

Revostatin EZ 10 is made by Steris Healthcare Pvt. Ltd., Jaipur, a WHO-GMP and ISO certified pharmaceutical company, under documented quality-control processes.

Product Information

Why Is Revostatin EZ 10 Important?

High cholesterol rarely causes symptoms. It builds up quietly as plaque in artery walls, narrowing them over the years. The first warning sign can be a heart attack or stroke.

This matters especially in India for three reasons:

1. Heart disease strikes Indians earlier. Studies show coronary artery disease appears about a decade earlier in South Asians than in many Western populations.
2. The lipid pattern is a risk in itself. Indians often have high triglycerides, low HDL ("good" cholesterol) and small, dense LDL particles, even at "normal-looking" total cholesterol.
3. Many patients stay above target on a statin alone. Diet, genetics and lifestyle can keep LDL high despite regular treatment. For these patients, adding ezetimibe is a well-established step.

Lowering LDL cholesterol is one of the most proven ways to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. Landmark research with ezetimibe added to a statin (such as the IMPROVE-IT trial) showed that further LDL reduction translated into fewer cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.

A combination tablet also means one tablet instead of two, which can make it easier to stick with treatment.

Key Benefits 

• Two-way cholesterol control. It reduces production in the liver and absorption in the gut.
• Greater LDL reduction. The combination lowers LDL more than rosuvastatin alone at the same statin dose.
• Helps reach target LDL. This matters most for patients with diabetes, previous heart attack or stroke, or other high-risk conditions.
• Supports heart and artery protection. Lowering LDL reduces the build-up of plaque in the arteries.
• May reduce the need for a high statin dose. Adding ezetimibe can be an option for people who cannot tolerate higher statin doses, as decided by the doctor.
• One tablet, once daily. Fewer pills and a simple schedule support consistency.
• Trusted manufacturing. Made under WHO-GMP standards by Steris Healthcare.

Uses of Revostatin EZ 10

Your doctor may prescribe this combination:

• For primary hypercholesterolaemia (high LDL cholesterol) along with a healthy diet
• For mixed hyperlipidaemia, where cholesterol and triglycerides are both raised
• When LDL remains high on a statin alone
• As a replacement for taking rosuvastatin and ezetimibe as separate tablets
• In selected patients with familial hypercholesterolaemia, under specialist guidance
• As part of a cardiovascular risk-reduction plan in high-risk adults

Treatment is always individualised after a lipid profile, liver function test and review of your medical history.

Precautions: What to Know Before Taking 

Do not take this medicine if you:

• Are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding
• Have active liver disease or unexplained, persistently raised liver enzymes
• Are allergic to rosuvastatin, ezetimibe or any ingredient in the tablet

Talk to your doctor first if you:

• Have an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) that is not controlled
• Have a history of muscle disease, or unexplained muscle pain from other statins
• Drink alcohol heavily or have a history of liver problems
• Are 65 or older, or are of Asian ancestry (higher drug exposure is possible)
• Have diabetes or are at risk of it, as statins can slightly raise blood sugar
• Are taking other medicines, herbal products or supplements
