Brief Answer:
Not reported.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX
Rozat (Rosuvastatin) is known to produce chest pain, bloating, nausea and muscle pains.
However, breatlessness is not a reported side effect of Rozat.
It is wise to rule out other causes like heart disease, lung diseases, anemia and high blood pressure; as they are known to produce breathlessness.
If you have persistent symptoms, better consult your doctor and report it for proper evaluation and appropriate treatment.
All the best.
