KEMOROSE NU - 40 TABLETS (10'S) (10's) Rosuvastatin 40 Mg by Alkem1

Here is the medicine information for rosuvastatin 40 mg:

Composition:
Rosuvastatin 40 mg per tablet.

Uses:
Rosuvastatin is a statin medicine used to lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and triglycerides and increase HDL (“good”) cholesterol. The 40 mg dose is a high-intensity dose, generally reserved for patients who require substantial LDL reduction or have particularly high cardiovascular risk.

How to Use:
Take only as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with water, with or without food. It can generally be taken at any time of day, preferably at the same time each day. Do not stop treatment or change the dose without medical advice.

Precautions & Warnings:
Inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney disease, thyroid problems, a history of muscle disorders, or consume large amounts of alcohol. The 40 mg dose has a higher risk of muscle-related adverse effects than lower doses. Seek medical attention for unexplained severe muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness, particularly if accompanied by fever or dark-colored urine.

Your doctor may monitor cholesterol levels and may check liver and kidney function when appropriate. The 40 mg dose may not be suitable for some patients with kidney impairment.

Possible Side Effects:
Common side effects may include headache, muscle aches, nausea, abdominal discomfort, constipation, and dizziness. Rosuvastatin may also slightly increase blood glucose in some people. Rare but serious effects include severe muscle injury (rhabdomyolysis), liver injury, and severe allergic reactions.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding:
Rosuvastatin should not be used during pregnancy. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Your doctor will determine whether treatment should be stopped or an alternative used.

Storage:
Store at room temperature in a dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Keep out of reach and sight of children. Do not use after the expiry date.

Important Safety Information:
Take rosuvastatin 40 mg only under medical supervision. Follow the recommended cholesterol-lowering diet and lifestyle measures. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption. Tell your doctor about all medicines and supplements you take because some can interact with rosuvastatin. Report unexplained muscle pain or weakness promptly, especially if severe or accompanied by dark urine.
