Revostat 10 Tablet is a medicine used to lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It belongs to a group of medicines called statins, which work by reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver. Lowering cholesterol helps reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other heart-related problems.
This tablet should be taken in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food, but try to take it at the same time each day. Do not stop this medicine on your own, even if you feel well, as cholesterol problems often have no symptoms.
Some people may experience mild side effects like headache, stomach pain, constipation, muscle pain, or weakness. These usually settle with time, but if they persist or become bothersome, consult your doctor. Rarely, it may cause serious muscle or liver problems, so regular monitoring may be advised.
Before starting, inform your doctor if you have liver disease, kidney problems, or if you consume alcohol regularly. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should not take this medicine.
