Brosuv F 145 Tablet

What is Brosuv F 145

Brosuv F 145 is a lipid-lowering medicine for controlling high cholesterol and triglyceride levels in adults at risk of heart disease. Its primary ingredients are Rosuvastatin (10mg) and Fenofibrate (145mg), which belong to the statin and fibrate classes of medications. 

This combination therapy works by reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver (Rosuvastatin) while also increasing the breakdown of triglycerides and raising high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or "good" cholesterol levels (Fenofibrate). By addressing multiple aspects of Dyslipidemia, Brosuv helps prevent cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes.

Side effects may include muscle pain, liver enzyme elevations, digestive issues, and, rarely, serious muscle damage (Rhabdomyolysis). During treatment, it is recommended to monitor lipid levels and liver/muscle enzymes regularly. Brosuv F is not suitable for patients with active liver disease, severe kidney impairment, or pregnant/breastfeeding women.

What are the benefits of Brosuv F 145

Brosuv F 145 combines the complementary actions of Rosuvastatin and Fenofibrate to manage Dyslipidemia (abnormal lipid levels). Rosuvastatin inhibits HMG-CoA reductase, the key enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, effectively reducing low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels. Fenofibrate activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-α), enhancing triglyceride breakdown and increasing HDL cholesterol production.

The medication offers multiple benefits:

• Significantly reduces LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels

• Decreases triglyceride levels

• Increases HDL ("good") cholesterol

• Reduces inflammation in blood vessel walls

• Improves overall cardiovascular risk profile

It is crucial to note that Brosuv F should be taken as part of a comprehensive approach that includes dietary modifications, regular exercise, and other lifestyle changes for optimal results.

Safety Advice

Liver disease

Brosuv is contraindicated in people with active or severe liver disease. Regular liver function tests are recommended, particularly during the first year of therapy. If liver enzyme levels rise to over 3 times the normal upper limit, dose reduction or discontinuation may be necessary.

Kidney impairment

People with moderate to severe kidney impairment should use Brosuv with caution, as both components (particularly Rosuvastatin) may accumulate in the body. Reduced dosage or alternative therapy may be recommended for some people. Regular kidney function monitoring is advised.

Pregnant and breastfeeding women

Brosuv is contraindicated during pregnancy as statins may harm fetal development, particularly affecting fetal lipid metabolism. Breastfeeding should be discontinued during therapy as both active ingredients may pass to the baby via breast milk and potentially impact the infant.

Avoid

While taking Brosuv, avoid grapefruit juice as it can increase drug concentration in your bloodstream. Limit alcohol consumption as it may increase the possibility of liver damage.
