Product Details

Rolip Tablets 20mg contain Rosuvastatin, a statin medication that helps lower cholesterol levels in the body. By targeting the liver, Tablets work by increasing the breakdown of harmful cholesterol (LDL and VLDL) while reducing their production, leading to improved cholesterol levels and reduced cardiovascular risk.

Purposes

The primary use of Rolip Tablets 20mg is to manage hyperlipidemia and mixed dyslipidemia. They assist in lowering elevated LDL-C, total cholesterol, non-HDL-C, and triglycerides, while increasing HDL-C levels. As part of a treatment plan involving diet, Tablets help control cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease in adults.

Warnings

1. Alcohol and Liver Disease: Patients who consume large quantities of alcohol or have a history of liver disease should use Tablets with caution due to the risk of liver complications.
2. Urinary Monitoring: A dose reduction may be necessary if patients develop unexplained proteinuria or hematuria while using Tablets 20mg.
3. Muscle Concerns: Patients with a history of muscular disorders or those at risk of rhabdomyolysis should take extra care when using this medication. Factors like renal insufficiency, hypothyroidism, or a family history of muscle toxicity increase this risk.

Adverse Effects

Common side effects associated with Tablets 20mg include headache, dizziness, nausea, abdominal pain, and muscle weakness. Serious side effects, though rare, include myopathy, rhabdomyolysis, pancreatitis, and allergic reactions such as angioedema. Seek medical attention if severe symptoms arise.

Cautions

Before starting  Tablets 20mg, ensure the correct starting dose is chosen based on the patient's health profile and cholesterol goals. Patients should undergo regular liver function tests to monitor any adverse effects on liver health. Always follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage and medical check-ups while on this treatment.
