Firstly, I always prefer to try the natural therapy(exercise,
foods, etc.)before any drugs. But sometimes we don't have a choice. I thought article/link was important to mention since so many Diabetics are put on these drugs and some are not told of these adverse effects. As far as the side effect to the liver, I do not know of anyone yet that has experienced this. Being a rare side effect would explain that. I do know of at least 8 People who have mentioned the muscle pain(Myopathy)which can be severe. People almost always get the pain soon after taking the statin and are taken off the drug. If either of these effects are a concern discuss it with your Dr. and never go off a medication without his/her directions. Doing so could cause more problems for you. Statin Adverse Effects |
