1. What is Roxiper and what is it used for
Roxiper is a combination of three active substances, rosuvastatin, perindopril, and indapamide.
Rosuvastatin belongs to a group of medicines called statins. Perindopril is an ACE inhibitor
(ang. angiotensin converting enzyme). Indapamide is a diuretic.
Rosuvastatin helps control high cholesterol levels. Perindopril and indapamide help
control high blood pressure (hypertension).
Roxiper is prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (arterial hypertension)
and high cholesterol levels. Patients who are already taking rosuvastatin, perindopril, and indapamide in separate tablets can take one tablet
of Roxiper, which contains all three components.
2. Important information before taking Roxiper
When not to take Roxiper
- If the patient is allergic to rosuvastatin, perindopril, or any other ACE inhibitor, or to indapamide, or to any other sulfonamide drug, or to any of the other components of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if the patient has experienced symptoms such as wheezing, facial or tongue swelling, intense itching, or severe skin rashes while taking ACE inhibitors in the past;
- if the patient has diabetes or kidney problems and is being treated with a blood pressure-lowering medicine containing aliskiren;
- in case of low potassium levels in the blood;
- in patients with suspected untreated, uncontrolled heart failure (symptoms may include fluid retention and breathing difficulties);
- if the patient has severe kidney disease that reduces blood flow to the kidneys (renal artery stenosis);
- if the patient is undergoing dialysis or blood filtration using a different method. Depending on the device used, Roxiper may not be suitable for the patient.
- if the patient has liver disease or a condition called hepatic encephalopathy (brain disease caused by liver disease);
- if the patient has experienced severe kidney impairment (creatinine clearance below 30 ml/min);
- if the patient has moderate kidney impairment (creatinine clearance 30-60 ml/min) for Roxiper in doses of 10 mg/8 mg/2.5 mg and 20 mg/8 mg/2.5 mg;
- if the patient has experienced recurring or unexplained muscle pain;
- if the patient is taking a combination of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (used to treat hepatitis C virus infection);
- if the patient is taking a medicine called cyclosporine (used after organ transplants);
- if the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding. If the patient becomes pregnant while taking Roxiper, they should stop taking the medicine immediately and inform their doctor. Women of childbearing age taking Roxiper should use effective birth control methods;
- if the patient has taken or is currently taking sacubitril/valsartan, a medicine used to treat a certain type of chronic heart failure in adults, as the risk of angioedema (rapid swelling of tissues under the skin, such as the throat) increases. See "Warnings and precautions" and "Roxiper and other medicines".
Warnings and precautions
Before starting Roxiper, the patient should discuss the following with their doctor or pharmacist:
- if the patient has aortic stenosis (narrowing of the main artery valve) or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (heart muscle disease) or renal artery stenosis (narrowing of the artery supplying the kidney);
- if the patient has heart failure or any other heart disease;
- if the patient has kidney disease or is undergoing dialysis;
- if the patient has muscle disorders, including pain, tenderness, weakness, or muscle cramps;
- if the patient has high levels of a hormone called aldosterone in the blood (primary aldosteronism);
- if the patient has liver disease;
- if the patient has connective tissue diseases (skin diseases), such as systemic lupus erythematosus or systemic scleroderma;
- if the patient has ever experienced severe skin rash or peeling of the skin, blisters, or ulcers in the mouth after taking Roxiper or other similar medicines;
- if the patient has severe respiratory failure;
- if the patient has high levels of acid in the blood, which can cause rapid breathing;
- if the patient is on a low-salt diet or uses salt substitutes containing potassium;
- if the patient is taking lithium or potassium-sparing diuretics (spironolactone, triamterene) or potassium supplements, as they should be avoided when taking Roxiper (see "Roxiper and other medicines");
- if the patient has hyperparathyroidism;
- if the patient has gout;
- if the patient is elderly and the dose needs to be increased;
- if the patient has experienced allergic reactions to light;
- if the patient experiences a severe allergic reaction with swelling of the face, lips, mouth, tongue, or throat, which can cause difficulty swallowing or breathing (angioedema) - swelling can occur at any time during treatment. If such symptoms occur, the patient should stop taking Roxiper and consult their doctor immediately;
- if the patient has diabetes;
- if the patient has thyroid problems;
- if the patient has atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries);
- if the patient is of Asian origin (Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Vietnamese, Korean, or Indian). The doctor should choose an appropriate initial dose of perindopril, indapamide, and rosuvastatin for the patient;
- in black patients, angioedema (swelling of the face, lips, mouth, tongue, or throat, which can cause difficulty swallowing or breathing) may occur more frequently, and the medicine may be less effective in lowering blood pressure;
- if the patient is undergoing dialysis using high-flux membranes;
- if the patient experiences recurring or unexplained muscle pain, or if muscle pain has occurred in the past or in the patient's family, or if muscle disorders have occurred while taking other cholesterol-lowering medicines. If unexplained muscle pain occurs, especially if the patient feels unwell or has a fever, they should consult their doctor immediately. If the patient experiences persistent muscle weakness, they should also consult their doctor;
- if the patient has myasthenia (a disease that causes general muscle weakness, including muscles involved in breathing) or ocular myasthenia (a disease that causes muscle weakness in the eyes), as statins may sometimes worsen the symptoms of the disease or cause myasthenia (see section 4);
- if the patient is taking other medicines called fibrates to lower cholesterol or any other cholesterol-lowering medicines (such as ezetimibe). The patient should carefully read the leaflet, even if they have taken other cholesterol-lowering medicines in the past;
- if the patient is taking medicines used to treat HIV infection, such as ritonavir, lopinavir, and atazanavir, see "Roxiper and other medicines";
- if the patient regularly consumes large amounts of alcohol;
- if the patient is taking any of the following medicines used to treat high blood pressure:
- angiotensin II receptor antagonist (AIIRA) (also called a sartan - e.g., valsartan, telmisartan, irbesartan), especially if the patient has diabetic kidney disease,
- aliskiren. The doctor may recommend regular monitoring of kidney function, blood pressure, and electrolyte levels (e.g., potassium) at regular intervals. See also "When not to take Roxiper" and "Warnings and precautions".
If the patient is taking or has taken within the last 7 days, orally or by injection, a medicine called fusidic acid (an antibiotic used to treat infections), they should not take Roxiper. The combination of fusidic acid and rosuvastatin can lead to severe muscle damage (rhabdomyolysis).
If the patient is taking any of the following medicines, the risk of angioedema increases
- racecadotril (used to treat diarrhea),
- sirolimus, everolimus, temsirolimus, and other medicines belonging to the so-called mTOR inhibitors (used to prevent organ rejection and treat cancer),
- linagliptin, saxagliptin, sitagliptin, wildagliptin, and other medicines belonging to the group of medicines called gliptins (used to treat diabetes).
Angioedema
Patient's treated with ACE inhibitors, including Roxiper, have reported angioedema (severe allergic reaction with swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, and difficulty swallowing or breathing). This reaction can occur at any time during treatment. If such symptoms occur, the patient should stop taking Roxiper and consult their doctor immediately. See also section 4.
Severe skin reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), have been reported in patients taking Roxiper. If any of the symptoms described in section 4 occur, the patient should stop taking Roxiper and consult their doctor immediately.
The patient must inform their doctor about pregnancy, suspected pregnancy, or planned pregnancy. Roxiper is not recommended during early pregnancy and should not be taken after the third month of pregnancy, as it may harm the fetus (see "Pregnancy and breastfeeding").
The patient should also inform their doctor or medical staff about taking Roxiper in the following situations:
- if they experience a dry cough;
- if they are scheduled for anesthesia and/or surgery;
- if they have recently had diarrhea, vomiting, or dehydration;
- if they are scheduled for dialysis or LDL apheresis (a procedure to remove cholesterol from the blood using a special device);
- if they are scheduled for desensitization therapy for wasp or bee stings;
- if they are scheduled for a diagnostic test involving the injection of contrast agents containing iodine (a substance that allows organs such as the kidneys or stomach to be visible on X-rays);
- if they experience vision disturbances or pain in one or both eyes. These may be symptoms of fluid accumulation in the vascular layer surrounding the eye (excessive fluid accumulation between the choroid and sclera) or glaucoma, increased pressure in one or both eyes - they can occur within a few hours to weeks after taking Roxiper. If left untreated, it can lead to permanent vision loss. Patients with a history of sulfonamide or penicillin allergy may be more prone to developing this condition. The patient should stop taking Roxiper and consult their doctor.
Athletes should be aware that Roxiper contains an active substance (indapamide) that may give a positive result in doping tests.
In a small number of people, statins may affect the liver. This can be determined by a simple test that shows increased liver enzyme activity in the blood. For this reason, the doctor usually performs a blood test (liver function tests) before and during treatment with Roxiper.
Patients with diabetes or those at risk of developing diabetes will be closely monitored by their doctor while taking this medicine. People with high blood sugar and fat levels, overweight, and high blood pressure may be at risk of developing diabetes.
Children and adolescents
Roxiper should not be taken by children and adolescents.

Roxiper with food and drink
Roxiper should be taken before a meal.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Do not takeRoxiper during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Pregnancy
The patient should inform their doctor about pregnancy, suspected pregnancy, or planned pregnancy. If the patient becomes pregnant while taking Roxiper, they should stop takingthe medicine immediately and consult their doctor. The doctor will usually recommend stopping Roxiper before planned pregnancy or as soon as possible after pregnancy is confirmed, and prescribe a different medicine instead of Roxiper. Women of childbearing age should use effective birth control methods while taking Roxiper.
Before taking any medicine, the patient should consult their doctor or pharmacist.
Breastfeeding
The patient should inform their doctor about breastfeeding or planned breastfeeding. Roxiper is contraindicated during breastfeeding.
The patient should consult their doctor immediately.
Driving and using machines
Roxiper does not affect alertness, but the patient may experience dizziness or weakness due to low blood pressure, which can affect their ability to drive or operate machinery. The patient should not drive or operate machinery until they know how Roxiper affects them.
3. How to take Roxiper
This medicine should always be taken as directed by the doctor or pharmacist. If the patient has any doubts, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist.
The recommended dose is one tablet per day. It is recommended to take the tablet in the morning, before a meal.
The tablet should be swallowed with a glass of water.
The doctor will determine the correct dose of Roxiper. Roxiper is intended for patients who are already taking rosuvastatin, perindopril, and indapamide in separate tablets.
Overdose of Roxiper
If the patient has taken too many tablets, they should consult their doctor or go to the emergency department of the nearest hospital immediately. The most likely symptom of overdose is low blood pressure. If the patient experiences significant lowering of blood pressure (symptoms such as dizziness or fainting), they should lie down with their legs elevated above the level of their torso.
Missed dose of Roxiper
It is essential to take the medicine every day, as the effectiveness of the treatment of hypertension depends on regular medication intake. However, if the patient misses a dose of Roxiper, they should take the next dose at the usual time.
The patient should not take a double dose to make up for the missed dose.
Stopping Roxiper treatment
Since the treatment of hypertension usually lasts for the rest of the patient's life, the patient should consult their doctor before stopping the treatment.
If the patient has any further doubts about taking this medicine, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist.
