I have been taking crestor 10 mg for about 1 year. I feel tied all the time and I feel weak, my arm muscles feel soft.I have lost my sex drive.I feel unhappy all the time and irritable. I have no time for other people, I just cant be bothered with people. The only thing that has been added to my life is crestor

Hello.The symptoms that you refer may be related to Rosuvastatin intake but usually do not persist for a year (they are more prominent at the begining of
treatment and with the passage of days decreasing ).
However,your doctor can assess about replace Rosuvastatin by other effective drug to decrease cholesterol levels as Ezetimibe.
I wish you good health.
