Hi, I was happily on Simvastatin for years, then my GP changed me to Atorvastatin because a blood test showed that my cholesterol was high. A few weeks after starting the Atorvastatin I developed horrible anxiety, bad dreams and my husband says I spend all night jumping around and twitching (no wonder

Bisoprolol and Nasonex (corticosteroid)

Cholesterol biosynthesis & Enzalutamide resistance
New study below. Looks like Simvastatin might prolong the effectiveness of Xtandi. Some will know that I favor the use of statins to shut off certain escape paths in therapies that involve the androgen receptor axis. In particular, I favor Simvastatin, but other statins that are also highly lipiphilic

Hi Just joined the group
After a long battle with a doctor gave in and is taking simvastatin. Does anyone have severe muscle pain in one arm I do a gym workout had a break, lowered the weights I lift. The shock is that the pain is really bad after taking statin and in the night.

Statin use and survival in metastatic castration-resistant PCa treated with abiraterone or enzalutamide after docetaxel failure.
New study below [1]. I believe that in the U.S. more than half of men my age are using a statin. On the other hand, I sense antipathy towards statins among many who are not using them. Certainly, there are sites such as Mercola's that contain dire warnings. In my case, I had no interest in lowering
