Can Rosuvastatin Calcium Tablets treat hypertension?

Rosuvastatin calcium tablets do not directly treat hypertension.

Rosuvastatin calcium tablets are primarily used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood, especially low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), known as "bad cholesterol." It works by inhibiting an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase in the liver, which plays a key role in cholesterol synthesis. Although rosuvastatin calcium tablets cannot directly treat hypertension, they may indirectly help reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases by lowering cholesterol levels.

For the treatment of hypertension, patients should take specific antihypertensive medications regularly and as directed by their doctor, such as hydrochlorothiazide tablets, metoprolol tartrate tablets, etc. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to dietary and lifestyle modifications, such as reducing salt and fat intake, maintaining a healthy weight, and engaging in appropriate physical activity.

If you have hypertension, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
