2022-04-12 17:12:01
I am a cardiac and diabetic patient, undergone PTCA in 2013 and 2019.In 2021 CAG done revealed patent stents and no blockage. Cardiologist has prescribed me rosuvad 10 mg.in 2019. Since then I am losing weight, I am not obese, my weight was 64 kg,height 5'5" which has reduced to 62 kg. Can I dispense with rosu. and take some other statin e.g. atorvastatin 10 which well suits to me. Thanks.
