Rosuvastatin 10 mg + Fenofibrate 160 mg
Treatment of mixed dyslipidemia (high LDL cholesterol and high triglycerides) when lifestyle changes alone are insufficient; helps reduce risk of cardiovascular events in high‑risk patients as advised by a doctor.
Rosuvastatin is a statin that inhibits HMG‑CoA reductase, reducing cholesterol synthesis in the liver and lowering LDL and total cholesterol while modestly raising HDL. Fenofibrate activates PPAR‑α, increasing breakdown and clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and improving HDL.
Take by mouth exactly as prescribed, usually once daily. Take at the same time each day; may be taken with or without food (follow your doctor’s advice). Swallow whole with water; do not crush or chew. Continue diet/exercise and regular lipid monitoring.
Common side effects of Rozat F 10/160 Tablet may include:
Risk of muscle injury (myopathy/rhabdomyolysis) increases with statin+fibrate therapy—seek medical help for unexplained muscle pain/weakness, fever or dark urine. Use with caution/avoid in active liver disease, severe kidney impairment, gallbladder disease, hypothyroidism not controlled, and in elderly. Periodic liver function tests, kidney function and lipid profile may be required. Stop and consult doctor if jaundice, severe abdominal pain, pancreatitis symptoms or allergic reactions occur.
