It also lowers the risk of stroke, heart attacks, and angioplasty in people with at least two risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Crestor is a brand of rosuvastatin.
Crestor stops the body from producing cholesterol by blocking the enzymes responsible. High cholesterol levels are associated with a greater risk of developing heart disease such as heart attacks. The risk of developing heart disease is significantly reduced when cholesterol levels are controlled through a combination of diet and exercise. Crestor's maximum effect on blood cholesterol can take 2 to 4 weeks.
Crestor can be taken by mouth, with or without food, once daily.
Your medical condition, response to treatment, age and any other medications you are taking will affect the determination of the dosage. Your doctor may prescribe Crestor at a lower dose if you are of Asian descent. It is because you might be more sensitive to its effects.
Antacids that contain aluminium or magnesium may reduce the absorption of this medication. If you are taking this type of antacid, take it at least 2 hours after you take Crestor.
Crestor should be taken on a regular basis to maximise its effectiveness. It will be easier to remember to take Crestor at the same time every day. Even if you feel better, you should keep taking your medication.
