Rozucor 10
Allopathy
Prescription Required
DCGI (Drugs Controller General of India)
Schedule H
Rozucor 10 contains 10 mg of the statin called Rosuvastatin which is an HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor belonging to Antilipemic Agent.
Rozucor 10 is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor used to lower lipid levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease including myocardial infarction and stroke.
The peak plasma concentrations of Rozucor 10 were reached 3 to 5 hours following oral dosing. Both Cmax and AUC increased in approximate proportion to the Rozucor 10 dose. The absolute bioavailability of Rozucor 10 is approximately 20%. The mean volume of distribution at the steady state of Rozucor 10 is approximately 134 liters. Rozucor 10 is 88% bound to plasma proteins, mostly albumin. Rozucor 10 is not extensively metabolized; approximately 10% of a radiolabeled dose is recovered as a metabolite. Following oral administration, Rozucor 10 and its metabolites are primarily excreted in the feces (90%). The elimination half-life (t1/2) of Rozucor 10 is approximately 19 hours. After an intravenous dose, approximately 28% of total body clearance was via the renal route, and 72% by the hepatic route.
Rozucor 10 shows common side effects like Constipation, stomach pain, Dizziness, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, Depression, joint pain, Headache, memory loss or forgetfulness, and confusion.
Rozucor 10 is available in the form of a film- coated Oral Tablet and Oral Capsule.
Rosuvastatin is available in India, the US, Singapore, the UK, Malaysia, Spain, Canada, Russia, Japan, China, and Australia.
Rozucor 10 contains 10 mg of the statin called Rosuvastatin belonging to the Antilipemic Agent and acts as an HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor.
Rozucor 10 is an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis (reduces the production of mevalonic acid from HMG-CoA); this then results in a compensatory increase in the expression of LDL receptors on hepatocyte membranes and stimulation of LDL catabolism. In addition to the ability of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors to decrease levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), they also possess pleiotropic properties including improved endothelial function, reduced inflammation at the site of the coronary plaque, inhibition of platelet aggregation, and anticoagulant effects.
The Data on the onset and duration of action of Rozucor 10 is not clinically established.
The Tmax of Rozucor 10 is approximately 3-5 hours.
Rozucor 10 is available in the form of film-coated Oral tablets and Oral Capsules.
Rozucor 10 Tablet and Capsule are taken orally usually once daily.
Rozucor 10 contains 10 mg of the statin called Rosuvastatin and is used in the treatment of high blood cholesterol and triglycerides (fats) levels. This medicine works by blocking the production of unhealthy fats in your body and prevents the risk of heart problems and stroke (a condition that causes reduced oxygen supply to the brain).
Rozucor 10 contains 10 mg of the statin called Rosuvastatin which is an HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor belonging to Antilipemic Agent.
Rozucor 10 selectively and competitively inhibits 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis. It increases the number of hepatic LDL receptors on the cell surface, thereby enhancing the uptake and catabolism of LDL. It also decreases apolipoprotein B, and triglyceride and increases HDL concentrations.

Rozucor 10 contains 10 mg of the statin called Rosuvastatin and is contraindicated in patients with-
· Patients with a known hypersensitivity to any component of this product. Hypersensitivity reactions including rash, pruritus, urticaria, and angioedema have been reported with Rosuvastatin.
· Patients with active liver disease may include unexplained persistent elevations of hepatic transaminase levels.
· Pregnancy.
· Lactation. Limited data indicate that Rozucor 10 is present in human milk. Because statins have the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants, women who require Rozucor 10 treatment should not breastfeed their infants
· Diabetes mellitus
Small increases in HbA1c (mean: ~0.1%) and fasting blood glucose have been reported with Rosuvastatin; however, the benefits of statin therapy far outweigh the risk of dysglycemia.
· Skeletal Muscle Effects
Cases of myopathy and rhabdomyolysis with acute renal failure secondary to myoglobinuria have been reported with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, including Rosuvastatin. These risks can occur at any dose level but are increased at the highest dose (40 mg). Rozucor 10 should be prescribed with caution in patients with predisposing factors for myopathy (e.g., age ≥65 years, inadequately treated hypothyroidism, renal impairment). The risk of myopathy during treatment with Rozucor 10 may be increased with concurrent administration of some other lipid-lowering therapies (fibrates or niacin), gemfibrozil, cyclosporine, atazanavir/ritonavir, lopinavir/ritonavir, or simeprevir. Cases of myopathy, including rhabdomyolysis, have been reported with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, including Rosuvastatin, coadministered with colchicine, and caution should be exercised when prescribing Rozucor 10 with colchicines. Rozucor 10 therapy should be discontinued if markedly elevated creatine kinase (CK-enzyme) levels occur, or myopathy is diagnosed or suspected.
· Hematuria/proteinuria
Hematuria (microscopic) and proteinuria have been observed; more commonly reported in adults receiving Rosuvastatin 40 mg daily. Typically, transient and not associated with a decrease in renal function. Consider dosage reduction if unexplained hematuria and proteinuria persist.
· Myasthenia gravis
May rarely worsen or precipitate myasthenia gravis (MG); monitor for worsening MG if treatment is initiated.
· Proteinuria And Hematuria
In the Rozucor 10 clinical trial program, dipstick-positive proteinuria and microscopic hematuria were observed among Rosuvastatin-treated patients. These findings were more frequent in patients taking Rosuvastatin 40 mg when compared to lower doses of Rozucor 10 or comparator HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, though it was generally transient and was not associated with worsening renal function. Although the clinical significance of this finding is unknown, a dose reduction should be considered for patients on Rozucor 10 therapy with unexplained persistent proteinuria and/or hematuria during routine urinalysis testing.
· Concomitant Coumarin Anticoagulants
Caution should be exercised when anticoagulants are given in conjunction with Rozucor 10 because of its potentiation of the effect of coumarin-type anticoagulants in prolonging the prothrombin time/INR. In patients taking coumarin anticoagulants and Rozucor 10 concomitantly, INR should be determined before starting Rozucor 10 and frequently enough during early therapy to ensure that no significant alteration of INR occurs.
Alcohol Warning
Consumption of alcohol is not recommended during treatment with Rozucor 10 as it may lead to liver damage and other undesired effects.
Breast Feeding Warning
It is not known whether Rozucor 10 is excreted in human milk, but a small amount of another drug in this class does pass into breast milk. In rats, breast milk concentrations of Rozucor 10 are three times higher than plasma levels; however, animal breast milk drug levels may not accurately reflect human breast milk levels. Because another drug in this class passes into human milk and because HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors have the potential to cause serious adverse reactions in nursing infants, women who require Rozucor 10 treatment should be advised not to nurse their infants.
Pregnancy Warning
Adverse events have been observed in some animal reproduction studies. There are reports of congenital anomalies following maternal use of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors in pregnancy; however, maternal disease, differences in specific agents used, and the low rates of exposure limit the interpretation of the available data. Cholesterol biosynthesis may be important in fetal development; serum cholesterol and triglycerides increase normally during pregnancy. The discontinuation of lipid-lowering medications temporarily during pregnancy is not expected to have a significant impact on the long-term outcomes of primary hypercholesterolemia treatment. Rozucor 10 should be discontinued immediately if an unplanned pregnancy occurs during treatment.
Common Adverse effects
· Myalgia, diabetes mellitus, constipation, nausea, cystitis, increased serum alanine aminotransferase, increased serum transaminases (including increased serum alkaline phosphatase, increased serum bilirubin), dizziness, headache, arthralgia, asthenia, increased creatine phosphokinase in blood specimen, Abnormal thyroid function test, increased gamma-glutamyl transferase, increased serum glucose, Abdominal pain, Hematuria, proteinuria, Elevated glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), Hypersensitivity reaction.
Rare Adverse effects
· Gynecomastia, Pancreatitis, Thrombocytopenia, Autoimmune hepatitis, hepatic failure, hepatitis, jaundice, Angioedema, Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy, Cognitive dysfunction (reversible; includes amnesia, confusion, memory impairment), depression, peripheral neuropathy, sleep disorder (including insomnia, nightmares), Myoglobinuria, myopathy, myositis, rhabdomyolysis, Renal failure syndrome, Interstitial pulmonary disease.
· Cyclosporine
Cyclosporine increased Rozucor 10 exposure and may result in an increased risk of myopathy. Therefore, in patients taking cyclosporine, the dose of Rozucor 10 should not exceed 5 mg once daily.
· Gemfibrozil
Gemfibrozil significantly increased Rozucor 10 exposure. Due to an observed increased risk of myopathy/rhabdomyolysis, combination therapy with Rozucor 10 and gemfibrozil should be avoided. If used together, the dose of Rozucor 10 should not exceed 10 mg once daily.
· Protease Inhibitors
Coadministration of Rozucor 10 with certain protease inhibitors has differing effects on Rozucor 10 exposure and may increase the risk of myopathy. Simeprevir, which is a hepatitis C virus (HCV) protease inhibitor, or combinations of atazanavir/ritonavir or lopinavir/ritonavir, which are HIV-1 protease inhibitors, increase Rozucor 10 exposure. For these protease inhibitors, the dose of Rozucor 10 should not exceed 10 mg once daily. The combinations of fosamprenavir/ritonavir or tipranavir/ritonavir, which are HIV-1 protease inhibitors, produce little or no change in Rozucor 10 exposure. Caution should be exercised when Rozucor 10 is coadministered with protease inhibitors.
· Coumarin Anticoagulants
Rozucor 10 significantly increased INR in patients receiving coumarin anticoagulants. Therefore, caution should be exercised when coumarin anticoagulants are given in conjunction with Rosuvastatin. In patients taking coumarin anticoagulants and Rozucor 10 concomitantly, INR should be determined before starting Rozucor 10 and frequently enough during early therapy to ensure that no significant alteration of INR occurs.
· Niacin
The risk of skeletal muscle effects may be enhanced when Rozucor 10 is used in combination with lipid-modifying doses (≥1 g/day) of niacin; caution should be used when prescribing with Rosuvastatin.
· Fenofibrate
When Rozucor 10 was coadministered with fenofibrate, no clinically significant increase in the AUC of Rozucor 10 or fenofibrate was observed. Because it is known that the risk of myopathy during treatment with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors is increased with concomitant use of fenofibrates, caution should be used when prescribing fenofibrates with Rosuvastatin.
· Colchicine
Cases of myopathy, including rhabdomyolysis, have been reported with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, including Rosuvastatin, coadministered with colchicine, and caution should be exercised when prescribing Rozucor 10 with colchicine.
The common side effects of Rozucor 10 which contains 10 mg of a statin called Rosuvastatin include the following
Common
● Constipation, stomach pain, Dizziness, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, Depression, joint pain, Headache, memory loss or forgetfulness, confusion.
Rare
● Muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness (or if these symptoms continue after stopping Rosuvastatin), lack of energy, fever, chest pain, dark, reddish urine; decreased amount of urine; weakness; and muscle aches, yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark colored urine, pain in the upper right part of the abdomen, nausea, extreme tiredness, weakness, unusual bleeding or bruising, loss of appetite, flu-like symptoms, rash, hives, itching, difficulty breathing or swallowing, swelling of the face, throat, tongue, lips, eyes, hands, feet, ankles, or lower legs, hoarseness.
· Pregnancy
Pregnancy Category X
Teratogenic effects: Rozucor 10 is contraindicated in women who are or may become pregnant. Serum cholesterol and triglycerides increase during normal pregnancy and cholesterol products are essential for fetal development. Atherosclerosis is a chronic process and discontinuation of lipid-lowering drugs during pregnancy should have little impact on the long-term outcomes of primary hyperlipidemia therapy. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of Rozucor 10 in pregnant women. There have been rare reports of congenital anomalies following intrauterine exposure to HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors. In a review of about 100 prospectively followed pregnancies in women exposed to other HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, the incidences of congenital anomalies, spontaneous abortions, and fetal deaths/stillbirths did not exceed the rate expected in the general population. However, this study was only able to exclude a three-to-fourfold increased risk of congenital anomalies over background incidence. In 89% of these cases, drug treatment started before pregnancy and stopped during the first trimester when pregnancy was identified. Rozucor 10 crosses the placenta in rats and rabbits. In rats, Rozucor 10 was not teratogenic at systemic exposures equivalent to a human therapeutic dose of 40 mg/day. At 10-12 times the human dose of 40 mg/day, there was decreased pup survival, decreased fetal body weight among female pups, and delayed ossification. In rabbits, pup viability decreased, and maternal mortality increased at doses equivalent to the human dose of 40 mg/day. Rozucor 10 may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. If the patient becomes pregnant while taking Rosuvastatin, the patient should be apprised of the potential risks to the fetus and the lack of known clinical benefits with continued use during pregnancy.
· Nursing Mothers
It is not known whether Rozucor 10 is excreted in human milk, but a small amount of another drug in this class does pass into breast milk. In rats, breast milk concentrations of Rozucor 10 are three times higher than plasma levels; however, animal breast milk drug levels may not accurately reflect human breast milk levels. Because another drug in this class passes into human milk and because HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors have the potential to cause serious adverse reactions in nursing infants, women who require Rozucor 10 treatment should be advised not to nurse their infants.
· Pediatric Use
The safety and effectiveness of Rozucor 10 in patients 10 to 17 years of age with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia were evaluated in a controlled clinical trial of 12 weeks duration followed by 40 weeks of open-label exposure. Patients treated with 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg daily Rozucor 10 had an adverse experience profile generally similar to that of patients treated with a placebo. Although not all adverse reactions identified in the adult population have been observed in clinical trials of children and adolescent patients, the same warnings and precautions for adults should be considered for children and adolescents. There was no detectable effect of Rozucor 10 on growth, weight, BMI (body mass index), or sexual maturation in pediatric patients (10 to 17 years of age). Adolescent females should be counseled on appropriate contraceptive methods while on Rozucor 10therapy. Rozucor 10 has not been studied in controlled clinical trials involving prepubertal patients or patients younger than 10 years of age. Doses of Rozucor 10 greater than 20 mg have not been studied in the pediatric population. In children and adolescents with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, experience is limited to eight patients (aged 8 years and above). In a pharmacokinetic study, 18 patients (9 boys and 9 girls) 10 to 17 years of age with heterozygous FH received single and multiple oral doses of Rosuvastatin. Both Cmax and AUC of Rozucor 10 were like values observed in adult subjects administered the same doses.
· Geriatric Use
Of the 10,275 patients in clinical studies with Rosuvastatin, 3159 (31%) were 65 years and older, and 698 (6.8%) were 75 years and older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. Elderly patients are at higher risk of myopathy and Rozucor 10 should be prescribed with caution in the elderly.
There is no specific treatment in the event of an overdose. In the event of an overdose, the patient should be treated symptomatically, and supportive measures instituted as required. Hemodialysis does not significantly enhance the clearance of rosuvastatin.
Pharmacodynamic
Rozucor 10 dose-dependently reduces elevated LDL cholesterol and reduces total cholesterol and triglycerides and increases HDL cholesterol. A therapeutic response to Rozucor 10 is evident within 1 week of commencing therapy and 90% of the maximum response is usually achieved in 2 weeks. The maximum response is usually achieved within 4 weeks and is maintained after that. Individualization of drug dosage should be based on the therapeutic response.
Pharmacokinetics
· Absorption
In clinical pharmacology studies in men, peak plasma concentrations of Rozucor 10 were reached 3 to 5 hours following oral dosing. Both Cmax and AUC increased in approximate proportion to the Rozucor 10 dose. The absolute bioavailability of Rozucor 10is approximately 20%. Administration of Rozucor 10 with food did not affect the AUC of Rosuvastatin. The AUC of Rozucor 10 does not differ following evening or morning drug administration.
· Distribution
The mean volume of distribution at the steady state of Rozucor 10 is approximately 134 liters. Rozucor 10 is 88% bound to plasma proteins, mostly albumin. This binding is reversible and independent of plasma concentrations.
· Metabolism
Rozucor 10 is not extensively metabolized; approximately 10% of a radiolabeled dose is recovered as a metabolite. The major metabolite is N-desmethyl Rosuvastatin, which is formed principally by cytochrome P450 2C9, and in vitro studies have demonstrated that N-desmethyl Rozucor 10has approximately one-sixth to one-half the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory activity of the parent compound. Overall, greater than 90% of active plasma HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory activity is accounted for by the parent compound.
· Excretion
Following oral administration, Rozucor 10 and its metabolites are primarily excreted in the feces (90%). The elimination half-life (t1/2) of Rozucor 10 is approximately 19 hours. After an intravenous dose, approximately 28% of total body clearance was via the renal route, and 72% by the hepatic route.
