Action

Pharmacology: Pharmacokinetics: Rosuvastatin is incompletely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, with a bioavailability of about 20%. Peak plasma concentrations are achieved about 5 hours after an oral dose. It is about 90% bound to plasma proteins. The plasma elimination half-life of rosuvastatin is about 19 hours. About 90% of an oral dose of rosuvastatin is excreted in the faeces, including absorbed and non-absorbed drug, and the remainder is excreted in the urine; about 5% of a dose is excreted unchanged in urine.
