Product Introduction
Razel-F5 Tablet contains two medicines that work together to lower unhealthy fats in the blood, such as cholesterol and triglycerides. It is usually prescribed when lifestyle changes like following a low-fat diet, regular exercise, and weight control are not enough to manage high cholesterol levels. By reducing these fats, the medicine helps lower the chances of heart-related problems, including heart attacks and strokes.
You can take Razel-F5 Tablet with or without food, but try to take it at the same time every day to get the best results and to help you remember. The dose will be decided by your doctor based on your cholesterol levels and how you respond to the treatment. Most people with high cholesterol do not feel unwell, but it is important not to stop taking this medicine suddenly, as it can increase the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides and raise the risk of heart disease.
Regular blood tests may be needed to check your lipid profile while taking this medicine. It is also essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle along with the medicine, which includes eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, avoiding smoking, limiting alcohol, and maintaining a healthy weight. Try to avoid foods that are high in saturated fats and cholesterol.
Some common side effects of this medicine include nausea, stomach discomfort, constipation, headache, muscle pain, and bloating. These are generally mild and temporary. However, if you notice yellowing of the skin or eyes, unusual bleeding or bruising, or persistent and severe muscle pain, consult your doctor immediately. Periodic liver function tests may also be recommended while you are on this medication.
This medicine should not be taken by individuals with active liver problems or certain abnormal liver function test results. Inform your doctor if you have kidney-related issues, are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning a pregnancy. People with diabetes should monitor their blood sugar levels closely, as this medicine can sometimes cause a rise in blood glucose.

How It Works
Razel-F5 Tablet combines two cholesterol-lowering medicines: Fenofibrate and Rosuvastatin. Fenofibrate lowers triglyceride levels in the blood, while Rosuvastatin reduces the production of bad cholesterol (LDL) in the liver. Together, they help raise the level of good cholesterol (HDL), improving the overall lipid balance.
