Treatment of hypertension and hyperlipidemia (reduction of cardiovascular disease risk)
This medication is used for patients who need to take two medications, telmisartan and rosuvastatin, simultaneously.

Rosuvastatin is used as an adjunct to diet for primary and mixed hyperlipidemia, as well as familial hypercholesterolemia patients, lowering total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol to slow the progression of atherosclerosis. Additionally, it is effective in reducing the risk of stroke, myocardial infarction, and arterial revascularization in high-risk cardiovascular disease patients. Therefore, this medication is used to manage both hypertension and hyperlipidemia while lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease.
