ROSUMAC GOLD 10 CAPSULES

Uses and Benefits of ROSUMAC GOLD 10 CAPSULES (ROSUVASTATIN 10MG + ASPIRIN 75MG + CLOPIDOGREL 75MG)

This combination is mainly used to lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular problems in people with high cholesterol and a high risk of blood clots.

WHAT THIS MEDICINE IS USED FOR

• Preventing heart attack and stroke in people at high risk
• Managing patients after a heart attack, stroke, or stent placement
• Lowering high cholesterol (LDL) levels along with clot prevention

HOW IT WORKS

• Rosuvastatin reduces cholesterol production in the liver, lowering LDL (bad cholesterol) and slightly raising HDL (good cholesterol)
• Aspirin thins the blood by stopping platelets from sticking together
• Clopidogrel also stops platelets from clumping, using a different pathway, giving stronger clot protection when combined with Aspirin

WHAT IT IS NOT USED FOR

• Not used for treating an acute, ongoing heart attack or stroke
• Not a painkiller or fever medicine, despite containing Aspirin
• Not used for general cholesterol control without cardiovascular risk
• Not suitable for children
