"The tablets can be taken at any time of day, with or without food."
"Rosuvastatin (Crestor) may be taken at any time of the day. This is different from other statins that work best when they're taken at night. This is because some statin medications do not stay in your body for very long (shorter half-life), and the body makes the most cholesterol at night."
