Use during pregnancy and lactation
Rosuvastatin-SZ is contraindicated in pregnancy and during breastfeeding. Women of reproductive age should use adequate methods of contraception. Since cholesterol and other cholesterol biosynthesis products are important for fetal development, the potential risk of inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase exceeds the benefit of using the drug in pregnant women. In case of pregnancy during treatment, the drug should be stopped immediately. Data on the allocation of rosuvastatin with breast milk are not available, therefore, during the period of breastfeeding, the drug should be discontinued (see section "Contraindications").

Dosage and Administration
Inside, do not chew or grind the tablet, swallow whole, washed down with water. The drug can be prescribed at any time of the day, regardless of food intake. Before starting therapy with Rosuvastatin-S3, the patient should begin to follow a standard hypocholesterolemic diet and continue to follow it during treatment. The dose of the drug should be selected individually depending on the goals of therapy and the therapeutic response to treatment, taking into account current recommendations on target lipid concentrations. The recommended starting dose for patients starting to take the drug, or for patients transferred from taking other HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, should be 5 mg or 10 mg of the drug Rosuvastatin-SZ 1 time per day. When choosing an initial dose, one should be guided by the individual cholesterol content and take into account the possible risk of cardiovascular complications, and it is also necessary to assess the potential risk of side effects. If necessary, the dose can be increased to a larger after 4 weeks (see section "Pharmacodynamics"). Due to the possible development of side effects when taking a dose of 40 mg, compared with lower doses of the drug (see section “Side effects”), increasing the dose to 40 mg after an additional dose is higher than the recommended initial dose for 4 weeks therapy can be carried out only in patients with severe hypercholesterolemia and a high risk of cardiovascular complications (especially in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia), who have not achieved the desired result of therapy when taking a dose of 20 mg, and which will be under the supervision of a specialist (see section "Special instructions"). Particularly careful monitoring of patients receiving the drug at a dose of 40 mg is recommended. A dosage of 40 mg is not recommended for patients who have not previously consulted a doctor. After 2-4 weeks of therapy and / or with an increase in the dose of the drug Rosuvastatin-SZ, monitoring of lipid metabolism is necessary (dose adjustment is necessary if necessary).
Homozygous hereditary hypercholesterolemia
Recommended starting dose is 20 mg once daily.
Elderly patients
Patients over the age of 65 are advised to start using the drug with a dose of 5 mg once a day.
Patients with renal failure
Dose adjustment is not required in patients with mild or moderate renal failure.
In patients with severe renal failure (CC less than 30 ml / min.), the use of the drug Rosuvastatin-SZ is contraindicated. The use of the drug in a dose of 40 mg is contraindicated in patients with moderate impaired renal function (CC 30-60 ml / min.) (See sections "Special Instructions" and "Pharmacodynamics"). For patients with moderate impaired renal function, an initial dose of 5 mg is recommended.
Patients with liver failure
Rosuvastatin-S3 is contraindicated in patients with active liver disease (see section "Contraindications").
Special Populations.
Ethnic groups In the study of the pharmacokinetic parameters of rosuvastatin in patients belonging to different ethnic groups, an increase in the systemic concentration of rosuvastatin among Japanese and Chinese was noted (see the section "Special Instructions"). This fact should be taken into account when prescribing Rosuvastatin-SZ to these patient groups. When prescribing doses of 10 mg and 20 mg, the recommended initial dose for patients of the Mongoloid race is 5 mg. The administration of the drug in a dose of 40 mg is contraindicated for patients of the Mongoloid race (see section "Contraindications").
Patients predisposed to myopathy
Administration of the drug in a dose of 40 mg is contraindicated in patients with factors that may indicate a predisposition to the development of myopathy (see section "Contraindications"). When prescribing doses of 10 mg and 20 mg, the recommended initial dose for this group of patients is 5 mg (see section "Contraindications").
Use with concomitant therapy
With the simultaneous use of the drug with gemfibrozil, fibrates, nicotinic acid in a dose of more than 1 g / day, an initial dose of 5 mg is recommended for patients. The dose of the drug Rosuvastatin-SZ should not exceed 10 mg once a day.
Side effects
Side effects observed when taking Rosuvastatin-SZ are usually mild and go away on their own. As with other HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, the incidence of side effects is mainly dose-dependent. The frequency of occurrence of undesirable effects is presented as follows: often (> 1 / 100.1 / 1000.1 / 10000, <1/1000) is very rare (<1/10000), the frequency is unknown (according to the available data, it is not possible to establish the frequency of occurrence) including individual messages.
immune system Rarely: hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema.
Endocrine system
Often: type 2 diabetes mellitus
From the central nervous system
Often: headache, dizziness
From the digestive tract
Often: constipation, nausea, abdominal pain Rarely: pancreatitis
From the side : pruritus, rash, urticaria
From the musculoskeletal system
Often: myalgia Rarely: myopathy (including myositis), rhabdomyolysis
Other
Often: asthenic syndrome
From the urinary system
In patients treated with Rosa SZ, proteinuria can be detected. Changes in the amount of protein in the urine (from the absence or trace amounts to ++ or more) are observed in less than 1% of patients receiving 10 to 20 mg of the drug, and in approximately 3% of patients receiving 40 mg of the drug. A slight change in the amount of protein in the urine was observed when taking a dose of 20 mg. In most cases, proteinuria decreases or disappears during therapy and does not mean the occurrence of acute or progression of an existing kidney disease.
From the musculoskeletal system
The following effects on the musculoskeletal system: myalgia, myopathy (including myositis), in rare cases, have been reported with the use of the drug Rosuvastatin-SZ in all doses, and especially when taking doses of the drug in excess of 20 mg cases - rhabdomyolysis with acute renal failure or without it. A dose-dependent increase in the activity of creatine phosphokinase (CPK) is observed in a small number of patients taking rosuvastatin. In most cases, it was mild, asymptomatic and temporary. In case of increased activity of CPK (more than 5 times compared with the upper limit of normal), therapy should be suspended (see section "Special instructions").
On the part of the liver
When using rosuvastatin, a dose-dependent increase in the activity of “liver” transaminases is observed in a small number of patients. In most cases, it is insignificant, asymptomatic and temporary.
Laboratory indicators
When using the drug Rosuvastatin-SZ, the following changes in laboratory parameters were also observed: an increase in the concentration of glucose, bilirubin, the activity of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, alkaline phosphatase, and dysfunction of the thyroid gland.
Post-marketing use of

Other
Frequency unknown: peripheral edema thrombocytopenia interstitial lung disease. The following side effects have been reported with some statins: depression, sleep disturbances, including insomnia and nightmares, sexual dysfunction.
Drug interaction
Cyclosporine and gemfibrozil potentiate the effects of rosuvastatin. Antacids containing magnesium or aluminum reduce the plasma concentration of rosuvastatin by about 50% (they should be taken 2 hours after taking rosuvastatin). Erythromycin, by enhancing gastrointestinal motility, reduces the effects of rosuvastatin. Rosuvastatin enhances the effects of oral contraceptives. Gemfibrozil, other fibrates, and nicotinic acid in lipid-lowering doses (approximately 1 g / day) increase the possibility of myopathy when used together with rosuvastatin. Co-administration of rosuvastatin with itraconazole increases 28% of rosuvastatin AUC (clinically insignificant). When combined with rosuvastatin with drugs that reduce the content of endogenous steroid hormones (including cimetidine, ketoconazole, spironolactone), a more pronounced decrease in endogenous steroid hormones is possible.
Overdose
When co-administered with multiple daily doses, the pharmacokinetic parameters of rosuvastatin do not change. There is no specific treatment for overdose with rosuvastatin. In case of overdose, it is recommended to carry out symptomatic treatment and measures aimed at maintaining the functions of vital organs and systems. Control of liver function and CPF level is required. Hemodialysis is unlikely to be effective.
