Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
10 + years ago I tried a number of statins for cholesterol & Triglycerides, Simvastatin, Fluvastatin, Pravastatin, all with the side affects of leg cramps complaining t my doctor and stopped all statins, replaced with Niacin which over the years had little effect. Recently thru another Diabetes Doctor tried Atorvastatin, but also took Co Q 10 prior for 2 weeks and daily thereafter No Leg Cramps. Of the 4 statins I have taken is there one better than the others particularly to lower my Trigliseroids, with my now taking or being introduced to Co Q 10
