Pharmacokinetics. The oral bioavailability of rosuvastatin is 20%, which is comparable to atorvastatin, pravastatin and fluvastatin, and qualitatively higher than simvastatin and lovastatin. After a single oral dose the peak plasma concentration is reached at 5 hours.
Absorption of ezetimibe is rapid and not altered by food content following oral administration. The drug is not metabolized by the cytochrome P450 system but extensive glucuronidation takes place in the intestine. Consequently, plasma concentrations of ezetimibe represent approximately 10% of total ezetimibe in plasma.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
