Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The muscle pain and stiffness is a common side effect of cholesterol lowering agents. If the muscle pain and weakness is persistent then you can consider changing to other alternatives after consulting your physician.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
