Dear Asnah! Thank you for choosing health care magic. Simvor is the drug which controls high cholesterol levels in blood. Cramps could be one of the possible documented side effect of Simvor group drugs. I strongly advise your husband to conact his family physician before taking any further decision on medication. I wish him a speedy recovery and good health.

hello,
simvor is for lowering his cholesterol level.
muscular problems are the side effects of statins or simvor.
so consult your family doctor about it.
keep control in blood sugar level and the cholesterol level.
other drugs your doctor prescribed are ok. continue them.
take care
