Product Description

Rosuvastatin is a member of the drug class of statins, used to treat high cholesterol and related conditions, and to prevent cardiovascular disease.

Rosuvastatin was initially developed by Shionogi in the late 1980s; the original development number is S-4522. In June, 1998, the development, market and sales rights were in-licensed to AstraZeneca. Rosuvastatin was approved for the first time in Holland on November 7, 2002, and then was approved in Canada in Feb, 2003. Approval in the United States by the FDA came on August 12, 2003.

Rosuvastatin is a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, having a mechanism of action similar to that of other statins. Its approximate elimination half life is 19 hours and its time to peak plasma concentration is reached in 3–5 hours following oral administration.

We manufacture and supply APIs and relative intermediates of Statin series for cardiovascular disease, including Pitavastatin, Rosuvastatin, Atorvastatin and Fluvastatin.
