Where is Crestor (rosuvastatin) made?

Crestor (rosuvastatin) is manufactured by AstraZeneca at company drug-production sites, but the exact country (or specific plant) can vary by product strength, packaging, and distribution batch.

How can you check which site made the specific Crestor you have?

The most reliable way is to look at your bottle or box for manufacturing information, which typically appears as:
- “Manufactured by” (or similar wording)
- The manufacturer’s name and address
- A plant or site identifier
- Batch/lot-related details

If you share the exact text from the “Manufactured by” line (or a photo with personal info removed), I can help interpret what it indicates.

Does the manufacturer change by strength (5 mg vs 10 mg, etc.)?

It can. Different strengths sometimes come from different plants even within the same brand, so the manufacturing location on one strength may not match another.

Are there also generic rosuvastatin versions from different countries?

Yes. If you’re seeing “rosuvastatin” (not Crestor) from a different company, the country of manufacture can differ based on that manufacturer’s supply chain and regulatory approvals.
