Rosuvastatin is a medication that belongs to a group of drugs known as statins. This medication works by reducing the levels of "bad" cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein or LDL) in your blood while increasing the levels of "good" cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein or HDL). By doing so, Rosuvastatin helps lower your risk of heart disease and stroke. It is suitable for individuals who need to manage their cholesterol levels to improve their heart health.
Description
Dosage and usage
The typical starting dose of Rosuvastatin is 5 to 10 mg once daily, with or without food. Your doctor may adjust your dose based on your cholesterol levels and how you respond to the medication. The maximum recommended dose is 40 mg per day. It is important to take Rosuvastatin regularly to get the most benefit from it. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule.
What Rosuvastatin contains
Each Rosuvastatin tablet contains the active ingredient Rosuvastatin calcium equivalent to 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg, or 40 mg of Rosuvastatin. The tablets also contain microcrystalline cellulose, lactose monohydrate, calcium phosphate, crospovidone, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, triacetin, titanium dioxide (E171), red iron oxide (E172).
Side effects
Common side effects of Rosuvastatin may include headache, dizziness, nausea, stomach pain, and muscle aches. Serious side effects that require immediate medical attention include muscle weakness, unexplained muscle pain, fever, dark urine, and yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice).
Precautions
Do not take Rosuvastatin if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is also not recommended for individuals with liver disease or a history of muscle disorders. Inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, especially blood thinners, to avoid potential drug interactions. If you experience any muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness while taking Rosuvastatin, contact your healthcare provider immediately.

An excellent experience.
This was an excellent experience which actually surpassed my expectations.I required a medication fairly urgently and probably just a one off however I will have no hesitation in using the service again if need be.The service was exceptionally good, courteous and helpful. My meds arrived very rapidly and I was able to fully track the delivery progress which was via a well established courier company.Highly recommend.
Quick and straightforward assessment
Quick and straightforward assessment, easy to order, fast delivery service, ability to ask questions via email, regarding the medication you’ve ordered. The only thing I was slightly disappointed with, was when I made my second order on the medication I previously purchased, as the price went up by almost £10.
