Individuals with high blood cholesterol levels have a higher risk of heart disease such as heart attack. When cholesterol levels are lowered through a combination of medication, diet, and exercise, the risk of heart disease is lowered as well. It takes 2 to 4 weeks to see the maximum effect of Crestor on cholesterol levels in blood tests.
