If you are on a statin drug or are thinking of going on a statin, this fully referenced book, Statin Drug Side Effects, is a “must read” for you. The unacceptable legacy of statin drug use at today’s high doses is a trail of chronic aches and pains, numbness, weakness, confusion, fatigue, shortness of breath and even heart failure in hordes of unsuspecting victims. Only by knowing this information can you make an informed decision about your health care. "Statin drugs don't do that" was a refrain the author heard hundreds of times from physicians and pharmacists as, four years ago, he began to investigate his own mysterious reaction to Lipitor.
As a former astronaut, aerospace medical research scientist, flight surgeon and family doctor, he was appalled by the lack of information in his own medical community on the true side effects of the statin drugs.
If you are a user of Vytorin, Lipitor, Zocor, Crestor, Mevacor, Pravachol or Lescol you must read this book. Most of the statin side effects I discuss are unknown to your busy doctor. Although knowledgeable about muscle and liver problems, few have heard of statin amnesia and other forms of memory dysfunction and fewer still associate hostility, aggression and profound depression as statin related. But even more ominous is the work of Muldoon who reports that 100% of statin users have cognitive deficit if sufficiently sensitive tests are used.
The unacceptable legacy of statin drug use at today's high doses is a trail of chronic aches and pains, numbness, weakness, confusion, fatigue, shortness of breath and even heart failure in hordes of unsuspecting victims.
Many physicians now have become victims of statin drug use and, like the author, now suspect the message of persuasive drug "reps" may not have been the entire truth. This book will frighten you as it informs you. The reader will never be quite the same again.
If you or your loved ones take statin drugs, buy this book!
