Overview

Sandoz Rosuvastatin 10mg Tablet contains Rosuvastatin 10mg (as rosuvastatin calcium) and is available as a tablet. It is classified as a prescription medicine and may only be obtained with a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner.

Only product, safety and handling information is published here. Anything beyond that is explained to you directly by your doctor or pharmacist as part of your consultation.

DoctorOnCall is a licensed online pharmacy. Orders for Sandoz Rosuvastatin 10mg Tablet are processed only after a doctor has assessed your suitability and issued a prescription, and every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is sent out.

Directions for Use

Take Sandoz Rosuvastatin 10mg Tablet once daily, at any time of the day, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew it. Try to take it at the same time every day so it becomes part of your routine, and keep taking it even once your cholesterol improves, unless your doctor tells you otherwise.

Dosage

The usual starting dose of Sandoz Rosuvastatin 10mg Tablet is 5-10mg once daily, which your doctor may adjust based on your response to treatment and cholesterol targets, typically up to a maximum of 40mg daily for patients who need closer monitoring. Never adjust the dose yourself; your doctor will individualise it to your cholesterol profile and cardiovascular risk.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
