Can Slow Thinking, Speaking And Slurred Speech Be Side Effects Of Zetia?

Zetia may be causing me to think and speak slower and sometimes slur my words. I have stopped taking Zetia, as my physican recommended, for two weeks and note that these problems have lessened. I am 76 and lecture and find these symptoms as uncomfortable. I note that Zetia normally does not list such problems as side effects. Have you heard of such side effects from Zetia?
