How it works
Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet drug. It makes the condition better by preventing platelets from sticking together which decreases the formation of harmful blood clots. This lowers the chance of heart attack or stroke.
Rosuvastatin belongs to the class of lipid-lowering drugs (HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors/Statins). It blocks the enzyme (HMG-CoA-reductase) that is required to make cholesterol in the body. As a result, it lowers triglycerides, "bad" cholesterol (LDL) in the bod
Aspirin / Acetylsalicylic acid decreases inflamation, prevents blood clots, reduces pain & fever with anti-platelet action. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that improves the condition by preventing platelets from sticking together. This in turn decreases the

Rosuvastatin can be taken along with clopidogrel. Rosuvastatin does not interfere with the antiplatelet action of clopidogrel. However, a high dose of clopidogrel can increase the Rosuvastatin blood concentration by 2-fold causing more chances of the side effects, so a dose adjustment for Rosuvastatin may be needed.
Q. Why should Rosuvastatin be taken at night?
Rosuvastatin acts by blocking an enzyme which is important for cholesterol synthesis in our body. The activity of this enzyme is more at night time, so, it is advisable to take Rosuvastatin in the evening hours after a meal or just before going to bed to have maximum effect.
