Used For:

  • Rosuvastatin is primarily used to lower cholesterol levels, specifically low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and to reduce triglycerides in the blood. It also raises high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.
  • It’s commonly prescribed to help prevent cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke in individuals at high risk.

Side Effects:

  • Common Side Effects: Muscle pain, headache, nausea, constipation, weakness, and dizziness.
  • Serious Side Effects: Muscle damage (rhabdomyolysis), liver damage, kidney failure, and elevated blood sugar levels. Signs of liver issues include yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, and severe fatigue.

Precautions:

  • Liver Health: Regular liver function tests are often recommended since rosuvastatin can affect liver enzymes. It should be used cautiously in patients with liver disease.
  • Kidney Function: Dose adjustments may be necessary for patients with kidney disease.
  • Muscle Concerns: There’s a risk of muscle-related side effects, especially in elderly patients or those taking certain other medications.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Rosuvastatin should not be used during pregnancy or while breastfeeding as it can harm the baby.
