Ezallor Sprinkle

Ezallor Sprinkle is a statin medication used to lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood, specifically low-density lipoprotein (LDL), also known as "bad cholesterol." It contains rosuvastatin calcium, which belongs to the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) class. Ezallor Sprinkle is often prescribed to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications in individuals with hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol) or other lipid disorders. This formulation comes in sprinkle capsules, which are designed to be opened and sprinkled over soft foods, making it easier for people who have difficulty swallowing tablets.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Ezallor Sprinkle Work?

Ezallor Sprinkle works by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which is responsible for producing cholesterol in the liver. By blocking this enzyme, rosuvastatin reduces the production of LDL cholesterol and increases the clearance of LDL from the bloodstream. This leads to a significant reduction in LDL levels, along with a moderate increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or "good cholesterol." The reduction in LDL cholesterol lowers the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, heart attacks, and strokes.



Common Dosages

The common dosages for Ezallor Sprinkle are:

  • 5 mg to 40 mg once daily, depending on the patient's cholesterol levels and risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

Typical Dosing

  • Adults: The typical starting dose is 10 mg to 20 mg once daily, adjusted based on cholesterol levels and individual response. The maximum dose is 40 mg once daily.
  • For patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH): The typical dose is 20 mg to 40 mg once daily.
  • For children aged 7 to 17 with HoFH: Dosing is based on weight and usually starts at 5 mg to 10 mg.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Primary hyperlipidemia: To lower high cholesterol and triglycerides.
  • Mixed dyslipidemia: To reduce both cholesterol and triglycerides.
  • Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH): A genetic condition causing extremely high cholesterol levels.
  • Prevention of cardiovascular events: In patients with a higher risk of heart disease, stroke, or heart attacks.

Who Shouldn't Take Ezallor Sprinkle?

  • Known hypersensitivity to rosuvastatin or any components of the formulation.
  • Active liver disease or persistent, unexplained elevations of liver enzymes.
  • Pregnancy: Statins are contraindicated during pregnancy due to the risk of harm to the fetus.
  • Breastfeeding: Rosuvastatin can pass into breast milk and may harm a nursing infant.

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Take Ezallor Sprinkle once daily, at the same time each day, with or without food.
  • If you have difficulty swallowing capsules, you can open the capsule and sprinkle the contents over a small amount of soft food, such as applesauce or yogurt. Swallow immediately without chewing, and do not save any for later use.
  • Avoid grapefruit juice while taking Ezallor Sprinkle, as it can increase the risk of side effects by raising the levels of the medication in your bloodstream.
  • Regular blood tests will be needed to monitor cholesterol levels and liver function.
  • Report any unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness to your healthcare provider, as this could indicate a rare but serious side effect called rhabdomyolysis.
