Hi and thank you so much for this query.

The feeling of not being too well could be a possible side effect of crestor. However, this is not one of the most common side effects. I will advise that he monitor this a little longer and should the time line and symptoms persist and be consistent with the onset of this medication, he should report to his doctor. also. if he thinks he is making some critical mistakes at work, let him take some time off to get his health fully restored before returning to work.

I hope this helps. I wish you well.Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications should need be. Thanks for using our services. We very much appreciate that.
