FAQ
What Roszet strengths and pack sizes can I order?
Roszet comes as 10/10mg tablets in packs of 30, 60, 90, 120 or 180. Larger packs cost less per tablet. Choose the pack that suits your order.
How can I pay for Roszet and track delivery to Hong Kong?
Pay for Roszet with Visa, Mastercard or American Express on a secure, encrypted payment page, or with Bitcoin or Ethereum. Card details never reach the shop's servers. Tracked courier takes 5 to 9 business days with online tracking. Support answers 24/7 in English and Cantonese by live chat.
How long does Roszet take to work?
Cholesterol starts to fall within the first few weeks of taking Roszet, which is why levels are usually rechecked to see how far they have come down. The protection against heart attacks and strokes that comes with lower cholesterol builds over years of steady use.
Can I drink alcohol with Roszet?
A drink now and then is unlikely to cause a problem, but heavy drinking most days puts extra strain on a liver that is already handling rosuvastatin. Cutting back while you take Roszet is the safer habit, and the same applies to any statin.
Does Roszet have to be taken at night?
No — rosuvastatin and ezetimibe can both be taken at any time of day. What matters is choosing a slot you will remember, such as breakfast or your evening meal, and keeping to it so the dose is not forgotten.
What is the difference between Roszet and plain rosuvastatin?
Plain rosuvastatin works in the liver, slowing the production of cholesterol. Roszet adds ezetimibe, which blocks cholesterol taken in from food and bile in the gut. Using both routes drops LDL further than the statin on its own, and it means one tablet instead of two.
What does 10/10mg mean on Roszet?
The two numbers are the milligrams of each ingredient: 10mg of rosuvastatin alongside 10mg of ezetimibe. Ten milligrams is a common starting dose for rosuvastatin and the standard ezetimibe dose, so Roszet 10/10mg is often where treatment begins.
About Roszet
What Roszet is for
Roszet 10/10mg is one tablet holding 10mg of rosuvastatin and 10mg of ezetimibe — a statin plus a cholesterol absorption blocker. Together they pull down LDL cholesterol, the "bad" sort that settles in artery walls, and they are used alongside a low-fat diet when diet and exercise alone have not moved levels far enough. Inherited forms of high cholesterol, where levels run high from a young age, are treated with the same pair.
How the two ingredients work
Rosuvastatin slows an enzyme the liver uses to build cholesterol, so the body makes less of it. Ezetimibe cuts how much cholesterol is taken up from food and from bile in the intestine. Blocking both routes lowers circulating cholesterol more than either ingredient manages alone. This is a long-term medicine rather than a short course: levels climb again once it is stopped.
How to take it
One tablet a day, at a regular time — many people take theirs with the evening meal so it becomes a habit. Food makes no real difference to how much is absorbed. Swallow the tablet whole with water. Miss a day and one tablet the next day is enough; doubling up does not help. Cholesterol is usually measured again a few weeks after starting and then at regular intervals.
Side effects worth knowing
Headache, aching muscles, diarrhoea, joint or back pain, a runny nose and mild stomach upset are the complaints that come up most. Muscle pain that is severe, tender to touch or comes with dark urine needs urgent treatment, as do yellowing of the skin or eyes, pain below the right ribs and unusual tiredness — all signs of liver trouble. Roszet is not taken during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Interactions, alcohol and storage
Colestyramine, colesevelam and colestipol bind Roszet in the gut, so this tablet goes four hours before or two hours after them. Ciclosporin and some antivirals for HIV and hepatitis C raise rosuvastatin levels, and blood thinners such as warfarin can behave differently. Heavy drinking most days adds to the strain on the liver. Keep the strips somewhere cool and out of the sun; heat and damp shorten shelf life.
