Rosubest 40 Tablet
Description
Rosubest 40 Tablet is a cholesterol-lowering medicine that helps reduce high levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides while increasing good cholesterol (HDL). It contains rosuvastatin as its active ingredient, which works by blocking the enzyme responsible for producing cholesterol in the liver. This helps maintain healthier blood vessels and reduces the risk of serious heart problems. Taking this medicine as prescribed helps in better control of cholesterol levels and supports long-term heart health.
Your doctor will determine the right dose and duration of Rosubest 40 Tablet based on your medical condition and response to treatment. It should be taken regularly at the same time each day, with or without food, to get the best results. Do not stop taking this medicine suddenly without consulting your doctor, as it may lead to a rebound increase in cholesterol levels.
Along with Rosubest 40 Tablet, it is important to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol. Incorporate plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins into your meals. Regular physical activity, such as walking, cycling, or yoga, can further enhance the effectiveness of this medicine. Avoid smoking and limit alcohol intake, as they can worsen cholesterol imbalance and increase heart risks.
Common side effects of Rosubest 40 Tablet may include muscle pain, headache, nausea, and stomach discomfort. These effects are usually mild and go away on their own. However, if you experience severe muscle weakness, dark urine, or yellowing of the skin and eyes, contact your doctor immediately.
Before starting Rosubest 40 Tablet, inform your doctor about any liver, kidney, or thyroid problems, or if you consume alcohol regularly. This medicine should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Your doctor may recommend regular lipid profiles and liver function tests to monitor your progress and ensure safety during treatment.
