Soybean Oil + Rosuvastatin
Rosuvastatin brand names: Crestor, Ezallor.
We found no known interaction between Soybean Oil and Rosuvastatin in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.
Soybean Oil and Rosuvastatin
We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.
No Known Interaction Found
We did not find a documented interaction between Rosuvastatin and Soybean Oil in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.
Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Soybean Oil at all — not against Rosuvastatin, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.
If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.
Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

What Rosuvastatin Is Prescribed For, and What Soybean Oil Has Been Studied For
These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Rosuvastatin is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Soybean Oil is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.
Rosuvastatin is prescribed for: Rosuvastatin tablets are used alongside diet changes to lower LDL-C ("bad" cholesterol), total cholesterol, and triglycerides (blood fats), and to raise HDL-C ("good" cholesterol) in adults with high cholesterol or mixed cholesterol problems. They are also used in adults with very high triglycerides, a condition called primary dysbetalipoproteinemia (Type III, a genetic fat-metabolism disorder), and to slow the buildup of plaque in arteries (atherosclerosis). In people without established heart disease but with multiple risk factors, rosuvastatin tablets can reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and procedures to open blocked arteries. For children and teens aged 8 and older with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH, an inherited high-cholesterol condition), the tablet form is used to lower LDL-C after diet alone has not worked.

Crestor tablets are also approved to treat homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH, a more severe inherited form) in adults and in children aged 7 and older.

Hypercholesterolemia Natural Medicines rates the evidence for Soybean Oil: Possibly Effective Read what the research shows
Soybean Oil for hypercholesterolemia
Clinical research suggests that consuming soybean oil has modest beneficial effects on levels of total and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol when compared with palm oil products. The effect on levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is unclear.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Rosuvastatin on your own; if you are taking Soybean Oil for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Rosuvastatin
This page covers Soybean Oil only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Rosuvastatin page lists 63 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.
The most serious there right now: Activated Charcoal (major), Beer (major), Grapefruit (major), Siberian Cocklebur (major) and Wine (major).
By severity: 5 major · 48 moderate · 10 minor.
From our pharmacist’s overview on the Rosuvastatin page
“Rosuvastatin (Crestor, Ezallor) is a statin taken daily for years to lower cholesterol, and its supplement list deserves real scrutiny, not a quick skim. Five of the 63 ingredients on file carry a major rating, headed by grapefruit, which can raise statin blood levels, and by heavy drinking, since beer and wine compound the strain this…”

About Soybean Oil
What is Soybean Oil?
- Source of dietary fat and calories
- Heart and cholesterol support
- Skin moisturizing and barrier care
- Part of intravenous (IV) nutrition in hospitals
- Carrier oil in supplements and cosmetics
Soybean oil is a common edible vegetable oil rich in polyunsaturated fats, including omega-6 and some omega-3 fatty acids. As part of a balanced diet it may help support healthy cholesterol when it replaces saturated fats, but it is high in calories, and people with soy allergy should be careful. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using it as a supplement.
Glycine max · Fabaceae · Oil pressed from the seeds (soybeans) · Cooking oil, softgel capsules, emulsions used in intravenous nutrition, topical skin products, and an ingredient in many processed foods
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Soybean Oil is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Soybean Oil record says about it on its own.
Soybean Oil: dosing
There is no official standardized supplement dose of soybean oil. As a food, it is used in normal cooking amounts, and as part of a healthy diet experts generally suggest replacing saturated fats with unsaturated oils rather than simply adding more oil.For supplement products such as softgels, follow the directions on the product label.

Rosuvastatin Is Linked to Lower Levels of One Nutrient
Natural Medicines records Rosuvastatin as a medicine that can lower these. This is not an interaction with Soybean Oil — it is a separate effect of the medicine, and it is a reason some people are advised to supplement rather than to avoid one:
