Thanks for the query.
Rozavel is composed of Rosuvastatin, which is a drug used in the management of dyslipidemia. It acts as an inhibitor of the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase (involved in the synthesis of cholesterol). As per studies, this particular enzyme is active at night, hence it is best to take this drug at night, just before going to bed (so that the action of the enzyme is blocked).

Hope this helps you.
