Rosufree 20 mg Tablet

Rosufree 20 mg Tablet is a prescription tablet that contains 20 mg of rosuvastatin in each tablet. Rosuvastatin belongs to the statin class of medicines, which are used to lower “bad” LDL cholesterol and triglycerides and to raise “good” HDL cholesterol in some people. Rosufree 20 mg Tablet is used to help reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cholesterol-related complications when diet and lifestyle changes are not enough. It is made by Healing Pharma India Pvt. Ltd. and is supplied as a strip/box of 10 tablets.

How it works: Rosuvastatin works by blocking an enzyme in the liver that the body uses to make cholesterol. As a tablet, Rosufree 20 mg Tablet helps the liver remove more LDL cholesterol from the blood and can lower the amount of fatty buildup in blood vessels over time.

Rosufree 20 mg Tablet is a mid-to-higher strength rosuvastatin tablet, higher than Rosufree 10 mg Tablet and lower than Rosufree 40 mg Tablet. Doctors may choose Rosufree 20 mg Tablet when a lower strength is not enough to control cholesterol, but a 40 mg tablet is not needed or not appropriate. Because it is a stronger dose, it is usually reserved for people whose prescriber has already assessed their cholesterol levels, risk factors, and tolerance to statins.

• High LDL cholesterol
• Mixed dyslipidemia
• High triglycerides in selected patients
• Lowering risk of heart attack and stroke

Each Rosufree 20 mg Tablet provides 20 mg of rosuvastatin, which is a prescription-strength dose that is not the starting dose for everyone. It may be taken once daily, and the maximum daily dose is determined by the prescriber; never take more than prescribed. Your doctor chooses this strength based on your cholesterol goal, medical history, and how you responded to lower strengths like Rosufree 10 mg Tablet.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
