Suggest Remedies For Hot Flashes While On Medication Pravastatin
I started taking pravastatin 4 days ago & am experiencing waves of hot flashes increasing more each day! Am past menopause. Took HRT for several years for hot flashes & finally able to stop a couple yrs ago & hot flashes almost non-existence. Now this.

thanks for your query
pravastatin will not cause hot flashes. if you have any doubt stop pravastatin for 4-5 days and see, if the hotflashes decrease, then pravstatin is causing it.
otherwise pravastatin can be taken further.
thank you
