Rosave C 20mg Capsule
Rosave C 20mg Capsule Description
Rosave C 20 mg Capsule is a prescription medication. The primary use of the Rosave C 20 mg capsule is to lower the chances of heart attack (myocardial infarction), stroke or other blood vessel-relate
d disorders. It is also used to reduce cholesterol levels in the body. Heart attack or stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks the flow of blood to the heart. This risk of artery blockage increases with high fat and cholesterol levels in the body. The two main components of this medication are rosuvastatin and clopidogrel. It is a combination of cholesterol-lowering and blood-thinning medicines. The mode of action of Rosave C 20 mg Capsules is to lower the bad cholesterol levels and prevent the formation of blood clots in the body. This causes the removal of any plaques or blockages present in the blood vessels. There are a few common side effects of the Rosave C 20 mg Capsule, such as headache, weakness, stomach pain, etc. Most of them do not require any medical attention. However, it is best to consult the doctor in case of persisting or worsening symptoms.
