In case you accidentally overdose on the drug, you need to rush to the nearest health center. The same case applies if you have forgotten to take the drug on the specific time.

Rosuvas Precautions


Discontinue use of this drug if you have suffered from liver problems, heart rhythm disorders, and decreased stomach acid or kidney failures. Any of these chronic ailments may worsen once the administration of the drug takes effect. Also, avoid taking red yeast rice products since they contain lovastatin that may cause complications in the liver and muscles.

It is not advisable to self-medicate or to manipulate the dosage. The doctor can tell whether it should be increased or not. Any case of hypersensitivity should also not go unreported since it may cause other problems. The patient may feel better within two weeks into the therapy. However, this is not reason enough to discourage them from completing the entire dosage.

Do not take antacids for at least two hours before taking it. These drugs tend to hinder the absorption of ketoconazole into the stomach.

Do not take alcohol and other caffeinated drinks during the therapy. This is because they tend to worsen the side effects caused by the drug.

Other cases that should never go unreported are pregnancy, breastfeeding, intake of vitamin supplement and other prescription drugs. One way or another, these cases may worsen even though the drug may outweigh the risk factors.
