AstraZeneca PLC is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with the New York State Department of Public Health (NDPH) to acquire the global rights to the drug Crestor for the treatment of adult patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (WHHIT).
Crestor, a brand name for the drug rosuvastatin, was launched in the U. S. market on November 16, 2014, and has been on the market since September. The new ownership agreement with the Dutch government marks the first agreement that will allow AstraZeneca to sell the drugs in the U. market with a price that is similar to the price that is currently available in the EU.
The NSDH’s approval of the rights for Crestor for adult patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia has been granted by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) on December 26, 2014. AstraZeneca is the first company to file suit with the EMA in South Africa under the EMA’s Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
The transaction will give AstraZeneca the ability to market Crestor to patients who are eligible for the new rights for the drug. AstraZeneca will receive a license to manufacture and sell its product to the U. market within 60 days of its launch.

The FDA is warning patients to take the drug on a full-fat diet or with a high-fat meal to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, such as gastric ulcers and bleeding gums. The drug is not recommended to be taken by those with a known hypersensitivity to rosuvastatin calcium.
Patients should be advised that they are not likely to develop new gastrointestinal problems, including GI ulcers, or gastrointestinal bleeding, and should not take the drug for longer than the recommended course of treatment. Crestor should be used only when prescribed by a doctor to treat the condition.

Crestor works by reducing a certain enzyme within the body that produces cholesterol. It belongs to a class of medications called statins.
Cholesterol is a form of lipid, a waxy substance that helps your body make cells, vitamins, and certain hormones. It is not inherently bad. Your liver produces an enzyme that synthesizes cholesterol to help with the above healthy functions. Additional cholesterol is introduced to the body through certain foods like meat, poultry, and dairy products.
There are two types of cholesterol: high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and low-density lipoproteins (LDLs). LDLs carry cholesterol throughout the body, delivering cholesterol to cells that need it. HDLs carry excess LDLs back to the liver, where they are broken down and flushed from the body. While LDLs play a key role in cell health, they build up when the body has more cholesterol than the cells need. This buildup turns into plaque in the arteries (blood vessels). As plaque covers the artery walls, the blood vessels become narrow. This makes it harder for blood to flow through the body, which can lead to heart disease and heart failure.
Statins work by reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver, which lowers the overall cholesterol levels in the body. Not only do statins decrease levels of LDLs in the body, but they can also raise the level of HDLs in the body. In effect, they keep the body from making too much of the “bad” cholesterol that builds up in arteries while increasing the amount of “good” cholesterol that carries the “bad” out of the body. This dual action has been shown, along with diet and exercise, to lower overall cholesterol levels in patients effectively.
Crestor can be taken by lower than 60-year-olds and is approved for treatment of high cholesterol in those over 60. It should be taken at a dose of 1 caproate caproate ( grandparents of rosacea) or 1 anti- cholesterol reductase inhibitor tablet ( grandparents of rosacea). Lower doses of rosuvastatin may be necessary for patients with severe liver disease.The dosage of Crestor can vary depending on the type of cholesterol disorder and individual patient factors. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult a healthcare provider if any concerns regarding cholesterol levels arise.
