View allI'm having this continuous chest pain since morning, and I think it might be a gas lock. I had dosa this morning, but I've been struggling with this issue for about 10 days now. I've been taking homeopathy, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Could it still just be gas, or do you think it's something else? Should I consider a different treatment?

I'm trying to figure out how much rosuvastatin I should be taking. I'm a diabetic and my blood sugar is managed with medication. I also have hypertension that's under control with medication. I'm not taking aspirin. Could you help me understand how many milligrams I need? Also, between rosuvastatin and atorvastatin, which one would be better for me?
Based on your lipid profile and medical history, it is recommended to start with rosuvastatin. The usual starting dose for rosuvastatin in your case would be 10 mg once daily. It is important to monitor your lipid levels regularly and adjust the dose as needed to achieve the target levels. Atorvastatin can also be effective, but based on current guidelines, rosuvastatin is preferred for its potency and efficacy in lowering cholesterol levels. Start with rosuvastatin 10 mg once daily and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
