Fran, those are really not common side effects, though a few people have reported them, when using the Emsam patch. Have you talked to your doctor? If they are really troublesome, you may need to switch to a different medication.

Most side effects do wear off, as your body adjusts to a medication, but it can take about 4 to 6 weeks.

Emsam contains the active ingredient Selegiline and is a transdermal patch, most commonly used to treat depression.

southsidemike, I am assuming you meant statin drugs.

They are known to cause some muscle cramping and joint aches as side effects, however, these usually also taper off as your body adjusts to the medication.

If yours are severe or don't ease, after you've been on it for awhile, you should speak to your doctor, it may not be the right medication for you and most people do not continue to have problems, once they stop the medication, so the effects are not permanent.
