Medicines List

Description

Felixa contain the active substance febuxostat and belongs to the group of medicines known as antigout drugs.

Indications

Felixa is used to treat gout, which is associated with an excess of a chemical called uric acid (urate) in the body. In some people, the amount of uric acid builds up in the blood and may become too high to remain soluble. When this happens, urate crystals may form in and around the joints and kidneys. These crystals can cause sudden, severe pain, redness, warmth and swelling in a joint (known as a gout attack). Left untreated, larger deposits called tophi may form in and around joints. These tophi may cause joint and bone damage.

Felixa works by reducing uric acid levels. Keeping uric acid levels low by taking Felixa once every day stops crystals building up, and over time it reduces symptoms. Keeping uric acid levels sufficiently low for a long enough period can also shrink tophi.

Description

Rosteza contains two different active substances in one film coated tablet. One of the active substances is rosuvastatin calcium, belonging to the group of so-called statins, the other active substance is ezetimibe.

Indications

Rosteza is a medicine used to lower levels of total cholesterol, “bad” cholesterol (LDL cholesterol) and fatty substances called triglycerides in your blood. In addition, it also raises levels of “good” cholesterol (HDL cholesterol). This medicine works to reduce your cholesterol in two ways: it reduces the cholesterol absorbed in your digestive tract, as well as the cholesterol your body makes by itself.

For most people, high cholesterol does not affect the way they feel because it does not produce any symptoms. However, if it is left untreated, fatty deposits can build up in the walls of your blood vessels causing them to narrow.

Sometimes, these narrowed blood vessels can get blocked which can cut off the blood supply to the heart or brain leading to a heart attack or a stroke. By lowering your cholesterol levels, you can reduce your risk of having a heart attack, a stroke or related health problems.

Rosteza is used in patients whose cholesterol levels cannot be controlled by a cholesterol lowering diet alone. You should stay on your cholesterol lowering diet while taking this medicine.

Your doctor may prescribe Rosteza if you are already taking both rosuvastatin and ezetimibe at the same dose level.
