What Causes Memory Loss, Joint Pain And Muscle Cramps While On Rozavel?

I have been taking Rozavel 20 since last more then 9 years after I underwent open heart surgery. I have been facing memory loss and also joint pains and muscle cramps since last more then a year now. Since last 2 months I have been very strictly following keto diet and also very strict excercise regime. There is substantial weight and fat loss in me. Do you suggest me stop with rosavel?

Hi,

Rosuvastatin side effects include mild memory loss and myalgias. If you are having those, I suggest you reduce the dose to 5 mg, say about 3/4 months.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
