Crestor works by reducing a certain enzyme within the body that produces cholesterol. It belongs to a class of medications called statins.
Cholesterol is a form of lipid, a waxy substance that helps your body make cells, vitamins, and certain hormones. It is not inherently bad. Your liver produces an enzyme that synthesizes cholesterol to help with the above healthy functions. Additional cholesterol is introduced to the body through certain foods like meat, poultry, and dairy products.
There are two types of cholesterol: high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and low-density lipoproteins (LDLs). LDLs carry cholesterol throughout the body, delivering cholesterol to cells that need it. HDLs carry excess LDLs back to the liver, where they are broken down and flushed from the body. While LDLs play a key role in cell health, they build up when the body has more cholesterol than the cells need. This buildup turns into plaque in the arteries (blood vessels). As plaque covers the artery walls, the blood vessels become narrow. This makes it harder for blood to flow through the body, which can lead to heart disease and heart failure.
Statins work by reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver, which lowers the overall cholesterol levels in the body. Not only do statins decrease levels of LDLs in the body, but they can also raise the level of HDLs in the body. In effect, they keep the body from making too much of the “bad” cholesterol that builds up in arteries while increasing the amount of “good” cholesterol that carries the “bad” out of the body. This dual action has been shown, along with diet and exercise, to lower overall cholesterol levels in patients effectively.
Crestor tablets and capsules may be used in the treatment of high cholesterol or as simply a “ fats lower cholesterol” medication. There are several different ways used for Crestor to be used. For fast acting medications like Lipitor or for high blood pressure medication like Rosuvastatin, the right way is by combining Crestor tablets with a healthy diet and regular exercise.Take the tablets as directed by your doctor, usually once a day. Take the tablets with a full glass of water. Follow the prescribed dosage and time interval between doses. Do not take more than once a day.
Do not take extra Crestor if you have had a liver transplant or if you are over 60 years of age or have cancer of the liver. Also read the medication guide for more information about the extra dose that may be necessary. Taking more Crestor than prescribed by your doctor is not recommended because this can cause serious health problems.
Crestor tablets and capsules may be broken into three equal dosesThe dosage of a medicine is determined by a number from your doctor. Follow your doctor's instructions while taking Crestor. If you are taking other medicines, check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking a new medicine. Take the medicine with water, at all the time it is being taken to reduce the chance of getting side effects.
Swallow the Crestor tablet whole. Do not split, crush, or chew the tablet. Doing so can release all the medicine in one pill. If you are giving the medicine to other people, try not to share the dose with anyone else. Sharing a dose with another person is dangerous because the other person cannot absorb the medicine or develop a reaction against the medicine. Give the medicine to others as long as the other person knows it is you or someone else has given you your medicine.
Do not share Crestor with others. For any other medicines, tell your doctor about all your medicines, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal products.
Do not share any of your favorite foods or beverages. Crestor can cause stomach problems, especially when taken with alcohol. Drinking alcohol with Crestor can increase the risk of stomach problems. Talk with your doctor before you or anyone else who is taking any of your medicines.
Crestor tablets are not suitable for people with liver problems. Liver disease may also occur if used with Crestor.
Do not drive a car or operate machinery if you have severe heart or liver problems. Using any over-the-phone or internet service that offers Crestor may cause dangerous dosing of Crestor.
Crestor (Rosuvastatin)is a widely prescribed statin medication for the treatment of high blood cholesterol levels. It belongs to the statin class of drugs and works by reducing the amount of cholesterol synthesized by the liver. This decrease in cholesterol levels helps to lower the risk of heart disease and other cardiovascular problems associated with high cholesterol levels.
Crestor is the brand name for rosuvastatin, a statin that belongs to the family of drugs called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It is used to treat pain, swelling, and stiffness associated with muscle and joint injuries. It is also used to lower LDL levels, which are a by-product of liver disease. Doctors often prescribe Crestor as a first-line medication for these conditions.
Crestor is the generic name of rosuvastatin, which is also sold under the brand name Crestor. Generic Crestor is the same drug as Crestor in many other countries and is still available.
Crestor is used to reduce the amount of cholesterol synthesized by the liver. It is used to lower LDL (bad) cholesterol (high) and raise HDL (good) cholesterol (low).
Rosuvastatin belongs to the statins family of drugs. It is also used to treat high cholesterol levels in patients with other conditions such as familial hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol levels in a particular group of people) or dyslipidemia (low cholesterol levels in a particular group of people).
Rosuvastatin is approved for use in adults and children 12 years of age and older. It may be used in combination with diet and exercise to treat certain conditions, such as type 2 diabetes. The drug is also approved for use in managing high blood pressure and reducing the risk of stroke and heart disease. It is also used to treat high cholesterol levels in patients who have a poor response to treatment with diet and exercise alone.
Rosuvastatin is prescribed for patients who have a reduced response to diet and exercise alone. It can also be used in combination with diet and exercise to lower the risk of cardiovascular problems associated with high cholesterol levels. It may also be prescribed for patients with high blood pressure and high cholesterol who have a reduced response to diet and exercise alone. It may also be used to reduce the risk of stroke and heart disease.
The most common side effects of Crestor include weight gain, upset stomach, and rash. These side effects are usually mild and go away on their own after a short time. However, if they persist or become severe, please discuss with your doctor.
Crestor is generally welltolerated. Most side effects go away once the drug is stopped. However, some people may experience side effects that will get worse with time. Tell your doctor if any of these symptoms worsen or do not improve after stopping the drug:
Some side effects of Crestor may be serious and even life-threatening. Contact your doctor immediately if these symptoms worsen or if they do not go away:
Call your doctor immediately if you experience any unusual symptoms while taking Crestor.
Rosuvastatin is available as a tablet or oral suspension. It should be taken with a meal. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage based on your medical history and treatment plan.
Doctors usually start rosuvastatin at a low dose and increase it as needed. Starting at a high dose, the body begins to metabolize the drug slowly and slowly, with each new dose being taken at a different rate.
Rosuvastatin can be taken with or without food. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
Rosuvastatin (Crestor) is the generic name of the active ingredient in Crestor (rosuvastatin calcium). Rosuvastatin is used to treat high cholesterol and to reduce the risk of certain cancers, including breast and colon cancers. It is also used in other conditions such as high cholesterol and elevated triglycerides in the blood.
Rosuvastatin is a member of the statin drug class. It works by reducing the amount of cholesterol (a fatty substance) in the blood, and this reduction is particularly beneficial in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases (such as heart disease and stroke).
There are several strengths of rosuvastatin available. Generic versions of rosuvastatin are also available. A generic that has the same active ingredient as the brand-name drug is also available. Generic rosuvastatin should be taken at a lower dosage than the brand-name drug.
