Description
LIPIGLAX 40 MG TABLETS – 28’S
Product Summary:
Lipiglax 40 mg Tablets provide a high-strength dose of rosuvastatin, a potent statin used to manage elevated cholesterol and reduce cardiovascular risk. This dose is appropriate for patients requiring aggressive lipid reduction under medical supervision.
Clinical Purpose:
Lipiglax 40 mg is prescribed to:
- Treat significantly elevated LDL cholesterol
- Manage mixed or familial dyslipidemia
- Address hypertriglyceridemia
- Provide primary or secondary prevention of cardiovascular events in high-risk adults
How It Works:
Rosuvastatin suppresses HMG‑CoA reductase, the enzyme essential for cholesterol production in the liver. As a result, LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and triglycerides decrease while HDL (“good”) cholesterol may increase modestly, improving overall lipid profile.
Dosage & Administration:
- Take one 40 mg tablet once daily, as directed by your healthcare provider
- Can be taken with or without food; consistency in dosing time is helpful
- If a dose is missed, take it when remembered unless it’s nearly time for the next dose—do not double doses
Important Precautions:
- Regular monitoring of liver enzymes and lipid profile is advised
- Report any unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness immediately
- Not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Exercise caution in patients with liver or kidney disease; consult your physician before starting
Potential Side Effects:
- Common: headache, nausea, abdominal discomfort, constipation, muscle aches
- Rare but serious: liver enzyme elevation, myopathy or rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown)
Storage Instructions:
Keep at room temperature in a dry place, away from direct sunlight. Store out of reach of children.
Usage Guidance:
Lipiglax 40 mg should be used alongside lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet, exercise, and routine medical follow-up for optimal effectiveness and safety.
