Rozula 10

Rosuvastatin (10mg)

Management of high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia, mixed dyslipidemia), lowering elevated LDL-C and triglycerides, increasing HDL-C; prevention of cardiovascular events (heart attack, stroke) in high-risk patients along with diet and lifestyle changes.

Rosuvastatin is an HMG‑CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) that reduces cholesterol synthesis in the liver. It increases LDL receptor activity, enhancing clearance of LDL cholesterol from the blood and lowering triglycerides while modestly raising HDL.

Tablet; take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time, with or without food. Continue diet/exercise; do not stop without medical advice. If a dose is missed, take it when remembered unless it is close to the next dose.

Headache, nausea, abdominal pain, constipation, muscle pain (myalgia), weakness, dizziness, increased liver enzymes

Not recommended in active liver disease or unexplained persistent elevation of liver enzymes. Seek medical help if muscle pain/tenderness/weakness occurs (risk of myopathy/rhabdomyolysis, higher with high doses, elderly, kidney disease, hypothyroidism). Use with caution in renal impairment; dose adjustments may be required. Monitor liver function and lipid profile as advised. Inform doctor if you have diabetes risk, alcohol use, or thyroid problems.
