Novastat Cv 20 Capsule 10

Novastat CV 20 Capsule is used to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular events in adults with established heart disease or multiple risk factors.

Uses of Novastat CV 20 Capsule are:

• Cholesterol Lowering: Reduces harmful LDL cholesterol and other fats in the blood.
• Clot Prevention: Helps prevent blood clots that can lead to heart attack or stroke.
• Cardiovascular Protection: Slows the progression of narrowed and hardened arteries in high-risk adults.

Here's how you should take Novastat CV 20 Capsule:

• Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew it.
• Try to take your capsule at the same time each day for maximum effectiveness.
• Continue taking this medicine even if your cholesterol levels improve unless advised otherwise by your doctor.

Novastat CV 20 Capsule is taken orally.

Novastat CV 20 Capsule contains two active ingredients:

• Rosuvastatin (20 mg): Classified as a statin, rosuvastatin functions by blocking an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase in your liver that is instrumental in cholesterol production. By inhibiting this enzyme, rosuvastatin effectively reduces the liver's ability to produce cholesterol, particularly LDL "bad" cholesterol. It also raises HDL "good" cholesterol levels and lowers triglycerides to some extent.
• Clopidogrel (75 mg): As an antiplatelet medicine, clopidogrel works by inhibiting a specific receptor called P2Y12 on platelets. This action prevents the platelets from activating and sticking together, thereby reducing the formation of blood clots and maintaining blood flow through arteries.

Both clopidogrel and rosuvastatin work together to stabilise atherosclerotic plaques and prevent blockages in the arteries, thereby reducing the risk of heart attack and stroke.

• Store your Novastat CV 20 Capsule at a cool room temperature, ideally below 30°C.
• Keep the capsules away from direct sunlight and moisture.
• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• To support the cholesterol-lowering effect of Novastat CV 20 Capsule, include more fibre-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains in your diet. These help in reducing the levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) naturally.

• Regular cardio exercise for at least 30 minutes a day can help manage cardiovascular disease and boost the effectiveness of this capsule. As always, consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
