Storwin

Could this medicine cause my hips and knees to be very painfull? ## Been on Crestor now on Storwin 10mg. Cholesterol count is 6.1. Need I be worried and should I go back to Crestor.LDL COUNT. ## Hello, Hannerie! How are you? I'm sorry that you're in pain. Yes, these statin medications can cause that as a side effect in some people that take them. As listed by the FDA you may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache and stuffy nose. Antionett, only you and your doctor can decide if you should go back on the medication or not. Have you consulted your physician? ## I am on it and I pain al over my body esecially when I am sleeping. FEEL LIKE A 90 YR OLD WHEN I LYING DOWN for more than 30 min and when I have sitted for long. ## Good Day I also use STORWIN for my cholesterol and s...

I am on storwin together with cardicor,ecotrin and 1/2 lisindopril. Besides these i take eltroxin, omega., vit C ! calcium., talomil and vit B , my doctor suggested alternate nights on storwin with enzyme Q10 on other night. My cardiologist says my aching legs day and night are "all in the mind". I find this unacceptable and he also suggested that i go off storwin for a month and see if it makes a difference. So i am very confused and not happy to be in pain like this

Hi there. I just want to know if it's safe to take topzole 40 with (statin) storwin 10mg and ecotrin as well as puricos 300mg (for gout)? I have been feeling much weakness from my hips to my legs as well as dizziness. I am 43 years old. ## Have they all been prescribed for you? Puricos contains Allopurinol, it is most commonly used to treat gout and kidney stones, Topzole contains Pantoprazole and it is used to help reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach, Ecotrin contains Aspirin and is frequently used to heart health and blood thinning, Storwin contains Rosuvastatin and is used to help lower cholesterol. The only interaction I found listed is that the Pantoprazole may lower how much of the Aspirin that is absorbed. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly inclu...

Discomfort in back almost like the feeling of getting the flu. switched from storwin to.zuvamor last week, I didn't feel like this on storwin. ## Hello, Lesley! How are you feeling? Zuvamor contains the active ingredient Rosuvastatin and it can cause those types of aches as side effects in some people that take it. Why did you change medications? ## Feeling better thanks, my doctor renewed my script after 6 months and said that Zuvamor is a clone of Crestor and is a better option.

Good day, I have been on Zuvamor 40mg for almost a year now, wasn't feeling well so they changed it to Storwin 40mg. Stil not feeling better. Can i change to Aspavor astorvastatin 40mg? ## Hello, Adele! How are you? What symptoms are you experiencing? All of these statin medications that are used to help lower cholesterol carry the risk of causing the same side effects, which the U.S. FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and joint/muscle aches. It might be better if you speak to your doctor to see what other alternatives you have. Have you tried lowering your cholesterol with diet and exercise?

My pharmacist keeps changing between the meds mentioned above. Why? And I see that citalopram is not heart friendly. I am also on cardicor, liso, storwin, ecotrin, 0.1mg of eltroxin, 1/2 zopigen at night, calcium, multivitamin and omega 6. ## Talomil is just a brand name for Citalopram, so there is actually no change. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension. What type of heart condition do have you been diagnosed with?
