Hi,

Based on the history you seem to have developed myopathy apparently caused by the cholesterol lowering medicine rozat. Other alternatives that can be effective in lowering high cholesterol include cholestyramine or ezetimibe.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
