Rosuvastatin 20 mg + Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid) 75 mg (typically as gastro-resistant/enteric-coated)
Prevention of cardiovascular events (heart attack, stroke) in patients at high risk; management of dyslipidaemia (high LDL cholesterol/triglycerides) with need for antiplatelet therapy; secondary prevention in coronary artery disease/after angioplasty or stenting as prescribed
Rosuvastatin is an HMG‑CoA reductase inhibitor that reduces cholesterol synthesis in the liver, lowering LDL and triglycerides and modestly raising HDL. Aspirin irreversibly inhibits platelet COX‑1, reducing thromboxane A2 formation and thereby decreasing platelet aggregation and clot formation.
Take orally once daily as prescribed, preferably at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow the capsule whole (do not crush/chew, especially if enteric-coated aspirin component). Do not stop on your own; continue long-term unless advised by your doctor.
