Description

FDA has not yet classified the drug into a specified pregnancy category.

Mode of Action

Rosuvastatin is a selective and competitive inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis. It increases the number of hepatic LDL receptors on the cell surface, enhancing uptake and catabolism of LDL. It also decreases apolipoprotein B, triglycerides and increases HDL.

Interaction

May increase serum levels of warfarin and oral contraceptives. May increase serum levels w/ itraconazole, HIV protease inhibitors. May decrease serum levels w/ erythromycin and antacids. May increase risk of myopathy w/ fenofibrate, niacin. Potentially Fatal: Increased risk of rhabdomyolysis w/ gemfibrozil and ciclosporin.

Pregnancy Category Note

Pregnancy Contraindicated Because HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors decrease cholesterol synthesis and possibly synthesis of other biologically active substances derived from cholesterol (eg, cell membranes), rosuvastatin may cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant women Lactation Contraindicated Limited data indicate that rosuvastatin is present in human milk; because statins have the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants, women who require rosuvastatin treatment should not breastfeed their infants
