Dosage 20 mg/10 mg. Special instructionsRozulip® Plus contains two active ingredients in one capsule. The first active ingredient is rosuvastatin. It belongs to the so-called statins. The second active ingredient is ezetimibe. Rosulip® Plus is a medicine used to lower the levels of total cholesterol, “bad” cholesterol (LDL cholesterol) and fats (triglycerides) in the blood. In addition, the drug increases the levels of “good” cholesterol (HDL cholesterol). The drug leads to a decrease in blood cholesterol levels, acting in two directions: reducing the absorption of cholesterol in the digestive tract and reducing the formation of cholesterol in the body. For most people, high cholesterol does not affect their well-being and does not cause any symptoms. But if left untreated, patients with elevated cholesterol levels, there is a deposition of fat in the walls of blood vessels, which leads to vasoconstriction. Sometimes these narrowed blood vessels can become blocked, and blood stops flowing to one or another part of the heart or brain: this leads, respectively, to a heart attack or stroke. Lowering cholesterol levels can reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and similar health problems. Rosulip® Plus is used in patients whose cholesterol levels cannot be reduced with diet alone. You should continue to follow a cholesterol-lowering diet while taking this medicine. Your doctor may prescribe Rosulip® Plus if treatment with rosuvastatin alone does not provide sufficient cholesterol control, or if you are already taking rosuvastatin and ezetimibe at the same doses. Rosulip® Plus does not help to reduce weight.
