1. What Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva is and what it is used for

Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva contains two active substances: rosuvastatin and acetylsalicylic acid.

  • Rosuvastatin belongs to a group of medicines called statins, which are lipid-lowering agents used to reduce blood levels of lipids known as cholesterol and triglycerides, when a low-fat diet and lifestyle changes alone have not been sufficient. Cholesterol is a fatty substance (lipid) that can cause narrowing of the blood vessels in the heart, leading to coronary heart disease. If you are at risk of a further heart attack, rosuvastatin may also be used to reduce this risk, even if your cholesterol levels are normal. A cholesterol-lowering diet should be maintained during treatment.
  • Acetylsalicylic acid, in low doses, belongs to a group of medicines called antiplatelet agents. Platelets are small blood cells that cause blood clotting and are involved in thrombosis. When a blood clot forms in an artery, it blocks blood flow and cuts off the oxygen supply. If this occurs in the heart, it may cause a heart attack or angina. These two active substances, taken together, reduce the risk of a further heart attack in patients who have already had a heart attack or who have episodes of chest pain (unstable angina).

Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva is indicated for patients already taking rosuvastatin and acetylsalicylic acid at these doses. Instead of taking separate tablets of rosuvastatin and acetylsalicylic acid, the patient will receive one capsule of Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva containing both components at the same strength as previously used.

2. Important information before using Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva

When not to use Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva:

  • if the patient is allergic to rosuvastatin, acetylsalicylic acid, any other salicylates or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • if the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding, or if she becomes pregnant while taking Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva, she should immediately stop taking it and inform her doctor. Women should avoid becoming pregnant while taking Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva by using appropriate contraceptive methods.
  • if the patient has liver disease.
  • if the patient has severe kidney disease.
  • if the patient has recurrent or unexplained muscle pain.
  • if the patient is taking the combination of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (used to treat viral hepatitis C infection).
  • if the patient is taking a medicine called cyclosporine (e.g. after organ transplantation).
  • if the patient has previously experienced asthma attack or swelling of certain body parts such as face, lips, throat or tongue (angioedema) after taking salicylates or NSAIDs.
  • if the patient has ever experienced severe skin rash, skin peeling, blisters and/or mouth ulcers after taking Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva or other similar medicines.
  • if the patient currently has or has previously had stomach or small intestine ulcers or any other bleeding, such as stroke.
  • if the patient has ever had blood clotting disorders.
  • if the patient suffers from gout.
  • if the patient has decompensated heart failure.
  • if the patient is taking a medicine called methotrexate (e.g. for cancer or rheumatoid arthritis) at doses higher than 7.5 mg per day (i.e. more than 15 mg per week).
  • if the patient is allergic to peanuts or soya.

Warnings and precautions
Before starting treatment with Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva, discuss this with your doctor or pharmacist:

  • if the patient has impaired kidney function.

  • if the patient has liver disease.

  • if the patient has previously experienced recurrent or unexplained muscle pain, muscle problems in the patient or family members, or muscle problems while previously taking other cholesterol-lowering medicines. The patient should immediately inform the doctor if unexplained muscle pain occurs, especially if the patient feels unwell or has fever. The patient should also inform the doctor or pharmacist if persistent muscle weakness occurs.

  • if the patient regularly consumes large amounts of alcohol.

  • if the patient’s thyroid gland does not function properly.

  • if the patient is taking other medicines called fibrates to lower cholesterol levels. The patient should carefully read the package leaflet, even if they have previously taken other cholesterol-lowering medicines.

  • If the patient is taking antiviral HIV medicines such as ritonavir with lopinavir and/or atazanavir, see section “Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva with other medicines”.

  • if the patient is taking or has taken within the last 7 days an oral or injectable medicine containing fusidic acid (used for bacterial infections); taking Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva with fusidic acid may lead to severe muscle problems (rhabdomyolysis); see section “Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva with other medicines”.

  • if the patient has severe respiratory insufficiency.

  • if the patient is over 70 years old.

  • if the patient is of Asian origin (i.e. Japan, China, Philippines, Vietnam, Korea and India). The doctor must choose the appropriate starting dose of Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva suitable for the patient.

  • if the patient currently has or has previously had stomach or small intestine problems (ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding).

  • if the patient has hypertension.

  • if the patient suffers from asthma, hay fever, nasal polyps or other chronic respiratory diseases; acetylsalicylic acid may trigger an asthma attack.

  • in case of hypersensitivity (allergy) to other painkillers and anti-inflammatory medicines, other anti-rheumatic drugs or other allergens.

  • if the patient has other allergies (e.g. with skin reactions, itching).

  • if the patient is taking other anticoagulant medicines (e.g. coumarin derivatives, heparin – except low-dose heparin).

  • in case of impaired kidney function or reduced blood flow to the heart and blood vessels (e.g. renal vascular disease, weakened heart muscle, reduced blood volume, severe surgery, blood infection or increased bleeding): acetylsalicylic acid may further increase the risk of kidney dysfunction and acute kidney failure.

  • if the patient has heavy menstrual periods.

The patient should immediately seek medical advice if symptoms worsen or if serious or unexpected adverse effects occur, such as unusual bleeding symptoms, severe skin reactions or any other symptoms of severe allergy (see section “Possible side effects”).
Serious skin reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), have been reported with the use of rosuvastatin. If any of the symptoms described in section 4 occur, the patient should stop taking Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva and contact their doctor immediately.
In a small number of people, statins may affect the liver. This is detected by a simple blood test that shows increased liver enzyme activity. For this reason, the doctor will usually recommend this blood test (liver function test) before starting and during treatment with Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva.
While taking this medicine, the doctor will closely monitor the patient if they have diabetes or are at risk of developing diabetes. The risk of developing diabetes is higher if the patient has high blood sugar and fat levels, is overweight and has high blood pressure.
Care should be taken to avoid dehydration (the patient may feel thirsty with dry mouth), as concomitant use of acetylsalicylic acid may lead to worsening of kidney function.
The patient should inform their doctor if they are planning a surgical procedure (even minor, such as tooth extraction), as acetylsalicylic acid thins the blood and may increase the risk of bleeding.
Acetylsalicylic acid may cause Reye's syndrome when given to children. Reye's syndrome is a very rare condition affecting the brain and liver, which may lead to death. For this reason, Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva should not be given to children and adolescents under 18 years of age.
In patients with severe glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency: acetylsalicylic acid may cause accelerated or excessive breakdown of red blood cells or a certain form of anaemia. This risk may be increased by factors such as high doses, fever or acute infections.
Low-dose acetylsalicylic acid may reduce uric acid excretion. This may trigger an attack of gout in patients at risk.
In case of cuts or injuries, bleeding may last slightly longer than usual. This is related to the effect of acetylsalicylic acid. Minor cuts and injuries (e.g. during shaving) are usually not significant. If the patient experiences unusual bleeding (in an unusual location or of unusual duration), they should contact their doctor.

Children and adolescents
Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva should not be used in children and adolescents.

Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva with other medicines
Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines the patient is currently taking or has recently taken, as well as any medicines they plan to take.
Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva may affect the following medicines or these medicines may affect it:

  • fibrates (such as gemfibrozil, fenofibrate) or other medicines used to lower cholesterol (such as ezetimibe).
  • antacids (used to neutralize stomach acid).
  • oral contraceptives ("the pill").
  • hormone replacement therapy.
  • regorafenib, darolutamide, capmatinib (used in cancer treatment).
  • fostamatinib (used to treat low platelet count).
  • febuxostat (used to treat and prevent high blood uric acid levels).
  • teriflunomide (used to treat multiple sclerosis).
  • any of the following medicines used to treat viral infections, including HIV or hepatitis C virus, administered alone or in combination with other medicines (see: Warnings and precautions): ritonavir, lopinavir, atazanavir, sofosbuvir, voxilaprevir, ombitasvir, paritaprevir, dasabuvir, velpatasvir, grazoprevir, elbasvir, glecaprevir, pibrentasvir.
  • ketoconazole, itraconazole (antifungal medicines).
  • rifampicin, erythromycin, clarithromycin (antibiotics).
  • medicines that reduce blood clotting and prevent blood clots (e.g. warfarin, heparin, coumarin, clopidogrel, ticlopidine, ticagrelor): acetylsalicylic acid may increase the risk of bleeding when taken with medicines that dissolve blood clots or thin the blood. Therefore, if such treatment is used, attention should be paid to signs of external or internal bleeding (e.g. bruising).
  • organ transplant rejection (cyclosporine, tacrolimus).
  • high blood pressure (e.g. diuretics and ACE inhibitors).
  • heart rhythm regulation (digoxin).
  • bipolar disorder (lithium).
  • pain and inflammation (e.g. non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen, naproxen or steroid medicines).
  • gout (e.g. probenecid, benzbromarone).
  • glaucoma (acetazolamide).
  • cancer or rheumatoid arthritis (methotrexate; at doses lower than 15 mg per week).
  • medicines that lower blood sugar (antidiabetic medicines) (e.g. glibenclamide) – may lead to reduced blood sugar levels.
  • depression (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), such as sertraline or paroxetine).
  • medicines used as hormone replacement therapy in case of adrenal or pituitary gland damage or removal (except topical products or cortisone replacement therapy due to Addison's disease) or in the treatment of inflammatory conditions, including rheumatic diseases and inflammatory bowel disease (corticosteroids). Concomitant use increases the risk of gastrointestinal adverse effects.
  • epileptic seizures (valproic acid).
  • medicines causing increased urine output (diuretics: so-called aldosterone antagonists, e.g. spironolactone and canrenoate, loop diuretics e.g. furosemide).
  • metamizole (a substance with analgesic and antipyretic effects) may reduce the effect of acetylsalicylic acid on platelet aggregation (clumping of blood cells and clot formation) if these medicines are used simultaneously. Therefore, caution should be exercised when using metamizole in patients receiving low-dose acetylsalicylic acid for cardioprotection.
  • alcohol: increases the risk of gastrointestinal ulcers and bleeding.

If the patient needs to take oral fusidic acid to treat a bacterial infection, Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva must be temporarily discontinued. The doctor will inform the patient when it is safe to resume taking this medicine. Taking Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva with fusidic acid may rarely lead to muscle weakness, tenderness or pain (rhabdomyolysis). More information on rhabdomyolysis is provided in section 4.
Rosuvastatin/Acetylsalicylic acid Teva may further lower blood pressure if the patient is taking other medicines used to treat high blood pressure.
