About Rosloy CV 20 Capsule 10's

Rosloy CV 20 Capsule 10's is a combination drug composed of a blood-thinning agent and cholesterol-lowering agent, primarily used to prevent heart attack and stroke in the future. It lowers the raised level of cholesterol and fats (triglycerides) in our body. A heart attack is a condition in which your coronary arteries (blood vessel supplying blood and oxygen to the heart) becomes blocked due to build-up of fats (plaque) including cholesterol. These plaques narrow the arteries, leading to atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease, mainly for most heart attacks.

Rosloy CV 20 Capsule 10's is composed of two medicines, namely: Rosuvastatin and Clopidogrel. Rosuvastatin is a lipid-lowering medication that blocks the enzyme required to make cholesterol in the body. As a result, it lowers the bad cholesterol (low-density lipoproteins or LDL), triglycerides (TG) and increases the levels of good cholesterol (high-density lipoproteins or HDL). Clopidogrel is a blood thinner (anticoagulant) that collectively prevents a clot in the blood vessels. Together Rosloy CV 20 Capsule 10's reduces the increased levels of bad cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein and triglycerides) and prevents blood clots, thereby reducing and preventing the risk of heart attack, stroke and heart-related chest pain (angina).

Take Rosloy CV 20 Capsule 10's exactly as directed by your doctor. The dose and duration of Rosloy CV 20 Capsule 10's may differ depending on the reason why you're taking it and your responses to treatment.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Heart attack: Heart attack is when your coronary arteries (blood vessels supplying blood and oxygen to the heart) become blocked due to the build-up of fats (plaque), including cholesterol. These plaques narrow the arteries, leading to atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease, mainly for most heart attacks.

Stroke: Stroke occurs when the blood and oxygen supply to the brain is blocked or minimized. As a result, the brain tissue is deprived of getting oxygen and nutrients. After a few minutes, brain cells (neurons) start to die. A stroke is a medical emergency; immediate treatment is required; else can cause brain damage, coma or even death. 

Atherosclerosis: Atherosclerosis occurs when fats, cholesterol, and other substances known as plaque deposit on your artery walls that restrict blood flow. This plaque formation triggers blood clots, narrows the artery's size, and hardens it. This, in turn, can lead to various heart complications like atherosclerosis, heart attack, heart-related chest pain (angina), and stroke. However, it can also affect the body's arteries apart from the heart.
