Rosuvastatin 20 mg

Rosuvastatin 20 mg is a prescription tablet used for effective cholesterol management when moderate to strong lowering of low density lipoprotein cholesterol is required. Doctors often choose this strength for patients with elevated cholesterol levels, existing cardiovascular risk factors, or when a lower dose has not achieved target lipid goals. It supports long-term vessel protection when used consistently with lifestyle changes.

Rosuvastatin works by reducing cholesterol production in the liver. As cholesterol levels improve, the risk of plaque build-up inside blood vessels may decrease over time, supporting healthier circulation. Many patients take it once daily, and keeping a fixed routine helps maintain stable effect. Your doctor may advise diet adjustments such as limiting saturated fats, improving fibre intake, and adding regular activity, because medicine and lifestyle together give better results.

Do not stop or change the dose without medical guidance, even if your reports improve. Lipid control usually needs ongoing therapy. Inform your doctor if you develop unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, weakness, severe tiredness, or dark urine. Also report persistent nausea or upper abdominal discomfort. Doctors commonly monitor lipid profile to measure response, and may recommend liver tests in selected cases based on history and risk factors.
