What Causes Stomach Pain While On Ezetimibe For Cholesterol?

I was recently prescribed Ezetimibe to help bring my cholesterol. Unfortunately, I have been experiencing great muscle pain around my mid-section. Pulling myself up from my bed is very uncomfortable and painful. I have MS but this is different. Any assistance you’d could give would be greatly appreciated.
