Aspirin 150 mg and Rosuvastatin 10 mg Capsules – The medicine contains two drugs called Aspirin and Rosuvastatin, which help prevent heart attacks and strokes. A heart attack usually happens when blood cannot flow to the heart because the arteries are blocked. The blockage usually happens because of a buildup of fat, cholesterol, and other materials. This creates a plaque in the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart (the coronary arteries). This medicine lowers bad cholesterol (called LDL) and triglycerides (TG). It also helps stop blood clots from forming in the blood vessels. Rosuvastatin and aspirin work together to lower the chances of having a heart attack, stroke, and chest pain from heart problems.
