Brief Answer:
You can continue the medicine.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking Health care magic forum.

I have gone through your query and reports. Your Bilirubin and SGPT is in normal range only. And you can continue Rosuvastatin (Rosuvas or Rozavel) also. Your LDL is very high and also triglyceride. In this case statin therapy is the best option.
You can also start life style modification like exercise daily and avoid fatty and oily foods and sweets. Alcohol should be avoided better also. Later on if your cholesterol level is coming down then can decrease the dosage of rosuvastatin after consulting your doctor.

Hope this may help you.Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
