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.
i m rather offended that you solicited my question and after i wrote it out you asked money for an answer. well, hi, thanks, i take simvastatin and realise that my weight gain has come since i started taking it. does simvastatin have a side effect of weight gain? (i saw on the internet that it does.) does pravachol have a side effect of weight gain? (i did not see on the internet that it does) thanks, teresa
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, Simvastatin may not cause any weight gain but for the weight gain it must be some other reason, it could be age and gender related, try some exercise, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
