Pregnancy Interaction

• Pregnant women should not take rosuvastatin at all.
• It could affect the development of the fetus by stopping cholesterol from being made.
• Clopidogrel is not a good choice because it makes bleeding more likely for both the mother and the fetus.
• Should only be used if absolutely required and after a doctor has looked at it.
• Not suggested while breastfeeding because both parts may get into the milk.

Faq For Medicine

Q1: What is Rosukem CV 10 Capsule for?
It lowers cholesterol and stops blood clots from forming, which lowers the risk of having a heart attack or stroke.

Q2. Is it okay to take it every day?
Yes, it is best to use it every day, but only with a doctor's permission.

Q3. When should I take this pill?
When cholesterol production is at its greatest, which is best in the evening or at night.

Q4. Will this medicine upset my stomach?
Clopidogrel is less likely to upset the stomach than aspirin, although some people may still feel bad.

Take it as soon as you can. If the next dose is coming up soon, skip it. Don't take twice as much.

Expert Advice

• Take your medicine every day; don't quit everything at once. Stopping could make you more likely to have a heart attack or stroke.
• Look out for unusual bleeding, nosebleeds, blood in your stools, or bruises that happen easily.
• If you get muscle soreness, black urine, or weakness that doesn't go away, tell your doctor. This could be a sign of statin-induced muscle injury.
• Eat a diet low in fat, work out often, and stay away from smoking and drinking.
• Tell your doctor before you get dental work or surgery.
• You may need to have regular liver function testing, lipid profile tests, and bleeding parameter checks.

• Aluminum and magnesium antacids lower the amount of rosuvastatin that the body can take in. Leave a gap of 2 hours
• Other
