IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT CRESTOR® (ROSUVASTATIN CALCIUM)

摘要

CRESTOR is a prescription medicine that belongs to a group of cholesterol-lowering medicines called statins. Along with diet, CRESTOR lowers "bad" cholesterol (LDL-C) and increases "good" cholesterol (HDL-C). If bad cholesterol levels are left untreated, fatty deposits (plaque) can build in the walls of the blood vessels. This plaque buildup, over time, can lead to narrowing of these vessels. This is one of the most common causes of heart disease. By lowering bad cholesterol in your blood, CRESTOR can slow this plaque buildup in the walls of blood vessels.
