Key Benefits
Used correctly, it helps control cholesterol, protects the heart and blood vessels, and supports long-term cardiovascular health.
Active Ingredients
The active ingredient is Rosuvastatin (20Mg). It works by blocking HMG-CoA reductase, the liver enzyme that makes cholesterol, so blood cholesterol falls. This targeted action is what makes it effective for its approved uses.

Side Effects
Like all medicines, it may cause side effects in some people, such as muscle aches, headache, nausea, or mild digestive upset; serious muscle problems are uncommon. These are often mild and settle on their own, but seek medical advice if any are severe or persistent.
Warnings and Precautions
Avoid in active liver disease and limit alcohol; tell your doctor about muscle pain or weakness. Tell your doctor about your full medical history, allergies and any other medicines or supplements you take. No. Statins are not recommended in pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Storage Instructions
