INTRODUCTION
CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG is a combination of Aspirin, Clopidogrel and Rosuvastatin which belongs to the group of medicines called Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, Antiplatelets and HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors respectively. CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG is indicated for the treatment of acute coronary syndrome, myocardial infarction (heart attack), angina (chest pain), or stroke (reduced blood supply to brain leading to brain death) that were caused due to clot or plaque formation in the blood vessels supplying the heart. Acute coronary syndrome is a heart condition caused by plaque rupture or clot formation in the coronary arteries. Symptoms include heart attack, chest pressure or pain while at rest, shortness of breath and sweating.
Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet medicine that blocks the aggregation of platelets (cells that form blood clots) in the blood vessels and aspirin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that irreversibly inhibits the activity of certain enzymes involved in the production of platelets. Rosuvastatin is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor that helps in reducing the production of bad cholesterol. Collectively they reduce the risk of clot or plaque formation in the blood vessels suppling the heart, leading to an improved cardiac function. Along treatment with CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG follow a healthy low-fat diet as advised by doctor to achieve better results.
Avoid drinking alcohol during the therapy, as it could increase the risk of bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract. CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG is not recommended for use in patients having severe liver, kidney, or heart disease. Consult your doctor before taking. CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG is generally not recommended for use in pregnant or breastfeeding women and in children (below 18 years). Consult your doctor for an alternative therapy. The most common side effects of taking CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG are increased bleeding tendency, nausea, indigestion, diarrhea, stomach pain, constipation, muscle pain, dizziness, and headache. Contact your doctor if any of these symptoms worsen.
USES OF CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG
- Treats acute coronary syndrome
- Treats myocardial infarction
- Treats angina
- Treats stroke
HOW CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG WORKS
CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG effectively improves cardiac function and reduces the risk of heart problems, where clopidogrel acts by inhibiting platelet aggregation in the coronary arteries, aspirin acts by blocking the actions of an enzyme called cyclo-oxygenase 1 which is believed to be responsible for catalyzing the synthesis of platelets and rosuvastatin acts by inhibiting the action of an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase, which is required to catalyze the formation of cholesterol, thus preventing clot or plaque formation in the coronary arteries leading to an uninterrupted supply of oxygen and blood to the heart.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Take CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG as advised by your physician. Swallow CARDIROSE GOLD 10MG with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the medicine. Your doctor will decide the correct dose and duration for you depending upon your age, body weight and disease condition.
