VASULIP 10 Tablet

What is Vasulip 10 Tablet?

Each Vasulip 10 Tablet contains Rosuvastatin 10 mg, a lipid‑lowering medicine from the statin class. Rosuvastatin works by inhibiting the HMG‑CoA reductase enzyme, thereby lowering LDL (“bad” cholesterol) and triglycerides and modestly increasing HDL (“good” cholesterol).​

Key Benefits

• Lowers LDL cholesterol and triglycerides significantly, helping to slow or reverse the progression of atherosclerosis.​

• Reduces risk of major cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke in high‑risk patients when combined with lifestyle measures.​

Uses & Indications

Doctors prescribe Vasulip 10 Tablet (rosuvastatin 10 mg) for:

• Primary hypercholesterolaemia and mixed dyslipidaemia, including familial hypercholesterolaemia, to optimise lipid profile.​

• Prevention of cardiovascular events in patients with risk factors like diabetes, hypertension, smoking or established coronary/cerebrovascular disease.​

It is always used along with a low‑fat, low‑cholesterol diet, weight management and exercise.​

Dosage & Directions

The exact dose and titration schedule must be set by a physician.​

• Typical starting dose in adults is 5–10 mg once daily, with 10 mg being a common starting dose in moderate‑risk patients.​

• It can be taken once daily at any time, with or without food, but ideally at the same time each day.​

Dose adjustments (up to a maximum of 40 mg/day in selected patients) depend on lipid response, tolerability, renal function and interacting medicines.​

Price & Packaging

Ingram’s product listing shows VASULIP 10 Tablet with an original price of ₹175 and a current price of ₹148.75 per strip. Online pharmacies list similar rosuvastatin 10 mg brands with MRPs around this range, often with discounts based on platform offers.​

Vasulip 10 is supplied as blister strips of 10 film‑coated tablets, packed in a carton bearing Ingram Biosciences branding and regulatory information.​

Side Effects & Safety

Rosuvastatin is usually well tolerated, but as with all statins, some side effects can occur. Common side effects include:​

• Muscle pain, weakness, headache, abdominal pain, nausea, constipation or diarrhoea, and dizziness.​

• Less commonly, joint pain, fatigue and mild elevation of liver enzymes may be seen.​

Unexplained muscle pain, marked weakness, dark urine, yellowing of skin/eyes or severe abdominal pain require urgent medical review.​

Precautions & Contraindications

• Contraindicated in active liver disease, unexplained persistent elevations of liver transaminases, pregnancy and breastfeeding.​

• Use cautiously in patients with renal impairment, hypothyroidism, history of muscle disorders or those on interacting drugs (e.g., certain antivirals, fibrates).​

• Alcohol intake should be limited or avoided because it increases the risk of liver toxicity and worsens lipid control.​

Baseline and periodic liver function tests and, when indicated, creatine kinase levels are recommended.​

10 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is Vasulip 10 Tablet used for?
It is used to treat high cholesterol and triglycerides and to lower the risk of heart attack and stroke in at‑risk patients.​

2. How long do I need to take Vasulip 10?
Statins are often taken long term or lifelong; stopping them usually leads to cholesterol rising again.​

3. When should I take the tablet?
It can be taken once daily, morning or night, with or without food; consistency in timing is more important than the exact time.​

4. Can Vasulip 10 cause muscle pain?
Yes, muscle pain or weakness can occur and rarely may signal serious muscle injury; any persistent or severe symptoms need prompt medical review.​

5. Does Vasulip 10 affect the liver?
Statins can rarely cause liver enzyme elevations; regular liver function monitoring is recommended, especially after starting or changing dose.​

6. Will Vasulip 10 increase my blood sugar?
Rosuvastatin may slightly increase blood sugar, marginally increasing diabetes risk in predisposed individuals; diabetics should monitor sugar closely.​

7. Can I drink alcohol while taking Vasulip 10?
Alcohol should be minimized or avoided, as combined use increases liver risk and may worsen triglycerides.​

8. Is weight gain a side effect?
There is no strong evidence that rosuvastatin directly causes weight gain; any significant weight change should be evaluated for other causes.​

9. Can I stop Vasulip 10 once my cholesterol becomes normal?
Do not stop on your own; cholesterol remains controlled only while taking the medicine and lifestyle measures.​

10. Does Vasulip 10 interact with other medicines?
Yes, interactions with some antivirals, fibrates, ciclosporin and others may need dose adjustments or avoidance; always inform your doctor about all medicines and supplements.​

Quick Tips

• Take Vasulip 10 Tablet at the same time every day and do not miss doses.​

• Follow a low‑fat, low‑cholesterol diet, exercise regularly and avoid smoking to maximise the cardioprotective benefit.​

• Report any new muscle pain, extreme tiredness, dark urine or yellowing of eyes/skin immediately.​
