Yes, there are a couple of non-statin options, including Fenofibrate and Gemfibrozil.

Unfortunately, they typically cause the same side effects, as reported by the FDA, which may include nausea, dizziness, headache and joint/muscle aches.

However, it is worth trying one, if you aren't tolerant of statins.

Is there anything else I can help with?
