Overview Unistar 20/150 Capsule

CardioGuard 20/150 capsules combine two active ingredients to help prevent cardiovascular events such as heart attacks, strokes, and angina. This medication lowers levels of "bad" cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides, simultaneously reducing blood clot formation. For optimal absorption and to minimize stomach discomfort, take CardioGuard 20/150 with food, consistently following your doctor's prescribed schedule. Regular, evenly spaced doses enhance adherence. Treatment duration and dosage are tailored to your individual needs. Complete the full course of treatment, even if you feel improved. A healthy lifestyle – including a low-fat diet, regular exercise, and smoking cessation – can enhance the medication's effectiveness. Common side effects include nausea, stomach pain, headache, and constipation. Increased bleeding risk necessitates caution with sharp objects and contact sports. Report any jaundice, muscle pain, or dark urine to your physician immediately. Prior to starting treatment, inform your doctor about any liver or kidney disease, bleeding disorders, pregnancy, pregnancy plans, or breastfeeding. Disclose all other medications you are currently using, as interactions may occur.

How Unistar 20/150 Capsule works:

Unistar 20/150 Capsules combine rosuvastatin, a cholesterol-reducing agent that inhibits cholesterol production, and aspirin, an anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet drug. Rosuvastatin lowers LDL ("bad") cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing HDL ("good") cholesterol levels. Aspirin's antiplatelet effect hinders clot formation, thus reducing the risk of vascular blockage and subsequently lowering the likelihood of heart attack, angina, or stroke.
