Roszet is a combination prescription medication containing Ezetimibe and Rosuvastatin in a single tablet. It is used to treat primary hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol) and homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). Roszet works by reducing LDL ("bad") cholesterol, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and ApoB while increasing HDL ("good") cholesterol.
Roszet was FDA-approved in March 2021 and manufactured by Althera Life Sciences. The brand has since been discontinued, but the same active ingredients are available separately as generic Rosuvastatin (formerly Crestor) and generic Ezetimibe (formerly Zetia).
Roszet combines two cholesterol-lowering medications with complementary mechanisms of action:
By targeting both cholesterol production and absorption simultaneously, Roszet can lower LDL cholesterol more effectively than either medication alone.
All strengths contain 10 mg of Ezetimibe combined with varying doses of Rosuvastatin. Your doctor will determine the appropriate strength based on your cholesterol levels and treatment goals.
Roszet has a findability score of 55 out of 100, meaning it can be difficult to locate. The brand has been discontinued by the manufacturer (Althera Life Sciences) as of 2025, making it essentially unavailable at most pharmacies. While remaining stock may exist at some locations, supply is not being replenished. Most patients are now being switched to the individual generic components — generic Rosuvastatin and generic Ezetimibe — which are widely available and significantly cheaper.
Use Medfinder to check pharmacy availability near you, or talk to your doctor about switching to the separate generic components.

Roszet was a convenient single-tablet option for patients who needed both Ezetimibe and Rosuvastatin to manage their cholesterol. However, since the brand has been discontinued by the manufacturer, most patients will need to switch to the individual generic components — which are widely available and much more affordable at $20–$55/month combined.
