Are you Looking to Buy Crestor (Rosuvastatin) from PrescriptionPoint.

Crestor (rosuvastatin) 

Indications

• If you’re an adult without coronary heart disease but have an increased risk of cardiovascular problems due to factors like age, high levels of hsCRP (a marker of inflammation), and other risk factors, this medicine can help lower your risk of stroke, heart attack, and the need for artery procedures. 
• If you have high levels of LDL cholesterol (“bad” cholesterol) in your blood, this medicine, when used with a healthy diet, can help lower your LDL-C levels. 
• For adults, this medicine can also help slow down the buildup of plaque in your arteries by reducing LDL-C levels. 
• If you or your child, aged 8 years and older, have a condition called heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH), this medicine, along with diet, can help lower LDL-C levels. 
• If you or your child, aged 7 years and older, has a condition called homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH), this medicine can be used with other treatments or alone if other options aren’t available to lower LDL-C levels. 
• Additionally, this medicine can be used, along with diet changes, to treat adults with conditions like primary dysbetalipoproteinemia (an inherited disorder affecting lipid metabolism) and hypertriglyceridemia (high levels of triglycerides in the blood). 

Dosage and Administration

• Take Crestor orally with or without food, at any time of day. 
• Assess LDL-C levels regularly, starting as early as 4 weeks after initiating Crestor, and adjust dosage if necessary. 
• Adhere to the recommended dosage range of 5 to 40 mg once daily for adults. 
• Administer Crestor to pediatric patients with HeFH aged 8 to less than 10 years at a daily dose of 5 to 10 mg, and for those aged 10 years and older at a daily dose of 5 to 20 mg. 
• Take a daily dose of 20 mg for pediatric patients with HoFH aged 7 years and older. 
• Initiate Asian patients at a daily dose of 5 mg, considering risks and benefits, and adjust dosage up to 20 mg once daily if control is inadequate. 
• Start patients with severe renal impairment (not on hemodialysis) at a daily dose of 5 mg, and do not exceed 10 mg once daily. 
• Do not exceed recommended dosages. 
• Do not initiate Crestor in patients with contraindications or hypersensitivity to the medication. 
• Do not exceed the prescribed dose for patients with specific conditions such as severe renal impairment. 
• Do not overlook the need to consult full prescribing information for Crestor regarding dosage and administration modifications due to potential drug interactions. 

Mechanism of Action

Crestor, a HMG Co‑A reductase inhibitor (statin), works by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, thereby reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver and increasing the uptake and breakdown of LDL cholesterol by liver cells.

• Hypersensitivity to rosuvastatin or any excipients in Crestor.

Precautions

• If you’re 65 years or older, have uncontrolled hypothyroidism, kidney problems, or are taking certain other medications along with Crestor, you may have a higher risk of developing myopathy (muscle disease) or rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown). If your blood tests show significantly increased levels of CK (creatine kinase) or if you experience muscle pain, weakness, or tenderness for no apparent reason, stop taking Crestor and inform your doctor immediately. If you have a serious condition that puts you at high risk of kidney failure due to rhabdomyolysis, temporarily stop taking Crestor. 
• In very rare cases, statin use like Crestor has been associated with a condition called immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM), which is an autoimmune muscle disease. If you suspect you have IMNM, stop taking Crestor and consult your doctor. 
• Crestor may cause liver problems, with increases in liver enzyme levels that can sometimes be serious. Before starting Crestor, your doctor may check your liver enzymes, and they may continue to monitor them periodically. If you experience symptoms like jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes) or if you have clinical signs of liver injury, stop taking Crestor immediately.
