CompositionRosuvastin 20 Tablet is used to lower high cholesterol and triglyceride levels and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. It is a single-ingredient statin medicine containing rosuvastatin.
This medicine lowers LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglycerides and helps raise HDL (good) cholesterol. Take it with or without food in the dose, frequency and duration prescribed by your doctor. Continue taking it even if your cholesterol improves, as stopping can cause levels to rise again.
A diet low in saturated fat and fried food, regular physical activity, a healthy weight and quitting smoking support better cholesterol control alongside this medicine. Regular blood tests help your doctor check your progress.
Before starting, tell your doctor if you have liver disease or drink alcohol regularly, and about all other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding. Report any unexplained muscle pain, tenderness or weakness, or dark urine, promptly. Follow the prescribed dose, frequency and duration, report persistent or serious side effects, and do not stop the medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
