While Rosumac (rosuvastatin) is typically prescribed as a long-term treatment for high cholesterol, any new chest tightness?even if slight?requires prompt medical evaluation. Please contact your doctor or seek emergency medical care immediately to have this symptom checked. It is very important to have chest discomfort evaluated by a healthcare professional right away to ensure your safety. Please do not stop or change your medication dose until you have been assessed by a doctor.

Mild stomach upset can sometimes occur when starting Rosumac (rosuvastatin). To help ease this, you can try taking your medication with food or right before bed. It is important not to stop taking your rosuvastatin without speaking to your doctor first, as managing your cholesterol is vital for your long-term health. However, if your stomach pain becomes severe, or is accompanied by persistent nausea, please contact your healthcare provider.
