Primary Uses

Indications

• Rosuvastatin is used for treating hyperlipidemia. An excessive number of triglycerides and bad cholesterol in your blood is referred to as hyperlipidemia.
• Increased levels of fats in your bloodstream may accumulate in the blood vessels, increasing your risk of heart disease. As a result, Rosuvastatin is used to lower the chance of having a heart attack.
• Stoke is a disorder caused by a lack of blood circulation to the brain. Unwanted fat deposition may cause constriction of the blood arteries that deliver blood to the brain. This can impede blood flow and raise the risk of a stroke. As a result, Rosuvastatin is used to minimize the risk of stroke by lowering cholesterol levels in the blood.
