A lack or loss of strength, loss of appetite, nausea, shivering, stomach pain, sweating, trouble sleeping, and vomiting are other, less common, side effects.
It should be noted that even if you experience symptoms after taking a statin, they may not be caused by the statin you have just taken.
Once a person starts taking the medication, they normally have to continue taking it for the rest of their life.
Statins are normally taken once a day, but the NHS advises that if you miss one dose that you shouldn’t take an extra pill the next day to compensate.
