Side Effects:

  • Common Side Effects: These include headache, muscle pain, abdominal pain, nausea, and weakness.
  • Serious Side Effects: Rarely, rosuvastatin can cause muscle breakdown (rhabdomyolysis), liver damage, or an increase in blood sugar levels, which could lead to or worsen diabetes.

Precautions:

  • Liver Function: Liver enzymes should be monitored periodically, as statins can cause liver inflammation or damage.
  • Kidney Function: Rosuvastatin can sometimes cause muscle breakdown, which can stress the kidneys, so it's used cautiously in patients with kidney impairment.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Rosuvastatin is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to potential harm to the fetus or infant.
  • Drug Interactions: It may interact with other medications, such as anticoagulants, certain antibiotics, and other lipid-lowering drugs, which may increase the risk of side effects.
