Hello,

Rosutec and Atorvastatin belong to same class of drug. Your doctor must have changed the medicine depending on your current health condition. He is well aware of your medical and personal history as well as current health status so he will be able tubes explain the cause.

Although, he must have considered all the benefits and side effects in mind before changing it. Common side effects of the medicine are headache, nausea, stomach ache which will fade away once your body adapts to the medicine. So do not worry and clear your doubts with your doctor in your next appointment.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
