Sorry to read you are having problems with Crestor.
I suffered dreadful side effects fromKJSH another Statin following a minor stroke so GP prescribed Crestor 10mg. For over 4 yrs now no problems. Suggest you see your GP re your side effects. It may not be Crestor
Good Luck and Good Health.
Regards.

Thank you for your comment re Crestor 5 & 10 mg. Unfortunately, there is no question in my mind re these side effects of Crestor. Have had a thorough check up with my regular doctor and another gp - nothing wrong or different other than the drug Crestor! All of the symptons I have reported are also reported by a large number of other people. Crestor is without doubt, the problem here! Miss Pak

Crestor contains the active ingredient Rosuvastatin and yes, everything you described can be common side effects of any statin medication.

What works well for one person doesn't always work well for someone else.

Miss Pak, I'd suggest speaking to your doctor. There are other medications that you can try and it really seems that this one just might not be the right one for you.

Whether or not someone experiences side effects and their severity is totally dependent on their own body and metabolism. There are several blood pressure medications on the market that I had very bad reactions to, but I know many people that use them, all the time, without any problems, at all.

Are there any other questions or comments?
