Rozat 5 Tablet 1*15

Rozat 5 Tablet is part of the statin group of medicines. It is used to manage high cholesterol and triglyceride levels, lowering the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other heart-related issues. Excess cholesterol can accumulate in blood vessels, causing narrowing and increasing cardiovascular risk.

This medication is commonly prescribed and considered safe for long-term use. It can be taken with food or on an empty stomach, and at any time of day, but maintaining the same timing each day is recommended. Even if you feel well, stopping the medicine without advice may raise cholesterol levels and increase the risk of heart problems.

Regular check-ups to monitor cholesterol are important. Rozat 5 Tablet is most effective when combined with a healthy lifestyle that includes a balanced diet, regular physical activity, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol, and maintaining an appropriate weight. While taking this medicine, you can continue your normal diet but should avoid foods high in fat.

Possible Side Effects
Some patients may experience mild effects such as muscle pain, weakness, headache, nausea, abdominal discomfort, dizziness, or joint pain. These effects are generally temporary and often improve over time. Seek medical advice if any symptoms persist, worsen, or if you notice yellowing of the eyes or unexplained muscle pain.

This medicine is not suitable for individuals with active liver disease. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid it as it may harm the baby. Diabetic patients should monitor blood sugar, as the medication can slightly raise glucose levels.
