Rosuvas 5

Rosuvas 5 from Sun Pharma contains Rosuvastatin, a statin medicine. Doctors often choose this lower strength for mild cholesterol elevation or for people who need a gentle starting dose.

• Mildly raised LDL (bad) cholesterol
• Starting dose for sensitive patients
• Prevention of heart attack and stroke
• Maintenance after stronger doses

Rosuvastatin blocks HMG-CoA reductase, the liver enzyme that makes cholesterol. With less cholesterol produced, the liver removes more LDL from the bloodstream and cholesterol levels improve gradually.

Take as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with water. It can be taken any time of day, but keep the timing fixed each day along with a heart-friendly diet.

• Mild muscle aches
• Headache
• Nausea or stomach upset
• Slight changes in liver tests

Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have liver, kidney, or thyroid issues. Report any unusual muscle pain, tenderness, or dark urine right away. Avoid heavy alcohol use.

Store below 25°C in a dry place, away from heat and moisture. Keep in the original strip and out of reach of children.
