Rosuvastatin and ezetimibe is a fixed-dose combination drug used to manage hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia. Rosuvastatin is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) that reduces cholesterol synthesis, while ezetimibe reduces cholesterol absorption in the intestine. The combination is approved for use in adults to lower LDL cholesterol when statin monotherapy is insufficient.
