RAZEL GOLD 20MG 15'S

About

Razel Gold 20mg typically refers to a comprehensive combination therapy containing Rosuvastatin 20mg along with antiplatelet agents such as Aspirin and Clopidogrel. This multi-drug regimen is critically prescribed for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or those who have recently undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent placement, aiming to prevent further major adverse cardiovascular events. Rosuvastatin, a high-intensity statin, effectively lowers cholesterol levels, stabilizes atherosclerotic plaques, and reduces inflammation. Concurrently, Aspirin and Clopidogrel work synergistically to inhibit platelet aggregation through different mechanisms, thereby significantly reducing the risk of thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction, stroke, and stent thrombosis. This integrated approach provides robust secondary prevention, targeting both lipid management and thrombotic risk in high-risk cardiac patients.

Uses

• Prevention of cardiovascular events post-ACS or PCI.
• Reduction of risk for myocardial infarction and stroke.
• Management of high cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
• Inhibition of platelet aggregation in high-risk patients.

Directions For Use

Take one tablet orally once daily, preferably at the same time each day, with or without food, as directed by your cardiologist.

Benefits

• Comprehensive cardiovascular protection.
• Significantly reduces risk of recurrent cardiac events.
• Lowers cholesterol and stabilizes atherosclerotic plaques.
• Prevents blood clot formation.
• Improved patient adherence with combination therapy.
• Crucial for secondary prevention in high-risk patients.

Side Effects

• Bleeding (gastrointestinal, intracranial)
• Muscle pain (myalgia)
• Headache
• Nausea
• Abdominal pain
• Diarrhea
• Indigestion
• Increased liver enzymes
• Rash
• Dizziness
• Bruising
• Thrombocytopenia (rare)

Safety Measures

• Alcohol - Avoid excessive alcohol consumption as it can increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding and liver damage.
• Pregnancy - Contraindicated due to potential for fetal harm from rosuvastatin and bleeding risk from antiplatelets; discontinue if pregnant.
• Breastfeeding - Not recommended; components may pass into breast milk and pose risks to the infant, including bleeding.
• Liver - Contraindicated in active liver disease; use with extreme caution in patients with hepatic impairment due to increased bleeding risk and statin metabolism.
• Kidney - Use with caution in severe renal impairment; dose adjustment may be necessary for rosuvastatin, and antiplatelets require careful monitoring.
• Lung - Generally safe for use in patients with lung conditions; however, caution with NSAID-induced asthma if aspirin is a component.
