Simvastatin + beer = sleep.
I started taking simvastatin about 18 months ago. I sleep okay, but when I wake up I remember really weird dreams. And within this same 18 months, I’ve developed a gut.
Jaysus. Is there any pill out there that DOESN’T make you fat.
I switched to it about 18 mos. ago also. Haven’t had a good nite’s sleep since. Nasty dreams also. It isn’t common for a researcher to suggest action like this in their research. Off to the dr. I go.
I’ve been taking a statin now for about 3 months, and my sleep pattern has been severely disrupted. And I do seem to be remembering more of my dreams than usual too. I take Lipitor, 20mg at night. I never would have thought it had anything to do with Lipitor (and maybe it doesn’t, but it sure is a weird coincidence).
