Description

Rozalet 10 Capsule is a combination of Rosuvastatin and Clopidogrel. It is used orally to reduce the level of bad cholesterol and fats in your body. High levels of cholesterols and fats increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. This medicine works by reducing the formation of cholesterols and fats in your body and decreasing the formation of harmful blood clots. Rozalet 10 Capsule shows common side effects like stomach pain, indigestion, constipation and headache. Consult your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen. This medicine increases the risk of bleeding in the body, so be careful while using sharp objects or doing any work that has a risk of causing damage to the skin. Avoid taking this medicine if you are allergic to it. Rozalet 10 Capsule may rarely cause serious side effects. While on treatment with this medication, notify your doctor if you are more tired than usual, do not feel hungry, or if you have yellow eyes or skin. Consult your doctor at the earliest if you experience muscle pain or weakness, particularly if it is accompanied by fever. Rozalet 10 Capsule can be taken with or without food. The dose and duration of treatment will depend on what you are being treated for. Take this medicine at the same time every day for ease of remembering and to avoid missing the dose. Do not stop taking it until you have finished the complete course of treatment, even when you feel better. Rozalet 10 Capsule can interact with other medications and health conditions. Share your entire medical history of kidney/liver problems, bleeding disorder etc. with your doctor.
