Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been prescribed Rosuvas f (10mg) as my LDL and Total Cholesterol levels are high. I am taking one tablet every night, before i go to bed. I want to know about its bad effects, if taken for long term. I am taking Rosuvas F 10 for 10 months. I always have Low BP (60-90). Can I lower/ stop medication now?Thank you. Deba,age 48yrs;5ft 7inches, 59kgs.
If you stop the medication your cholesterol will increase again. Rosuvas (Rosuvastatin) doesn't have frequent side effects, it's possible side effects are: weakness increase of liver enzymes (SGOT, LGOT) muscle or joint pain stomach pain headache cough voice changes difficulty of swallowing dry or sore throat
Hope I could help you
Wishing you good health
