CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Rosuvastatin is a selective and competitive inhibitor of HMG-CoA
reductase,
the rate-limiting enzyme that converts 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl
coenzyme
A to mevalonate, a precursor for cholesterol. The primary site of
action
of rosuvastatin is the liver, the target organ for cholesterol
lowering.
In _in vivo_ and _in vitro_ studies, rosuvastatin produces its
lipid-modifying
effects in two ways. First, it increases the number of hepatic LDL
receptors
on the cell-surface to enhance uptake and catabolism of LDL. Second,
rosuvastatin inhibits hepatic synthesis of VLDL, which reduces the
total
number of VLDL and LDL particles.
PHARMACOKINETICS
_Absorption_
Maximum plasma concentration is achieved approximately in 5 hours
after oral administration. The absolute bioavailability is
approximately
20%. Both peak concentration (C
max
) and area under the plasma
concentration-time curve (AUC) increased in approximate proportion to
rosuvastatin dose.
Administration of rosuvastatin with food decreased the rate of drug
absorption by 20% as assessed by C
max
, but there was no effect on the
extent of absorption as assessed by AUC.
