Interactions between: Crestor, Gymnema sylvestre

Gymnema sylvestre in Gymnema sylvestre may interact with ROSUVASTATIN in Crestor

In tests of laboratory animals, gymnema sylvestre has appeared to lower blood levels of cholesterol and other lipids. While no results from human studies confirm this result, it is possible that gymnema sylvestre may increase the cholesterol-lowering effects of rosuvastatin. No serious consequences are thought to occur, but cholesterol levels may be lower than expected, if gymnema sylvestre is used together with rosuvastatin. You may want to ask your healthcare provider about this potential interaction if you think you are having problems.

This interaction is poorly documented and is considered minor in severity.
