You do know that you need to supplement with CoQ10 when taking a statin, right?
I immediately thought of the ADHD med’s fed to boys for decades now.
We’ll be learning of their long term affects...
Adderall (amphetamine)
Ritalin (methylphenidate)
Concerta (methylphenidate)
Focalin (dexmethylphenidate)
Daytrana (methylphenidate patch)
Metadate or Methylin (methylphenidate)
Dexedrine or Dextrostat (dextroamphetamine)
Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine dimesylate)
The brain is dependent on cholesterol - I can’t imagine how statins would NOT affect the brain, especially in those who’ve not been advised to take CoQ10 with a statin.
I take 21 Rx/OTCs per day, plus 2 types of insulin.
>>>Memory loss. Concerns have been raised about cognitive dysfunction and memory loss associated with statin use. However, a review of reports to the FDA up to 2002 found only 60 reports of patients who had memory loss associated with statins.
I know three people who I am very close to and interact with daily. I can tell when they start taking statins and I can tell when they stop. When they start, they get stupid and forgetful and it goes away when it stops. All of them.
My wife was one and it also gave her fuzzy head and leg aches. She tried all of them and finally gave up. It is scary when they forget things from the day before or things you’ve both agreed upon.
I will never take them. My father in law takes them and he’s getting forgetful, but he’s 85, so there is that.
Almost all democrats must be on statins....!!!!!!
I started STATINS, and was on them for only 10 days. I immediately had fitful and restless sleep, gruesome nightmares, muscle aches, and was angry all the time. I stopped taking them and bounced back to “normal” whatever that means. I am now listed as “allergic” to STATINS. Evil stuff!
Anti-anxiety (= "tranquilizer" or "sleeping pill"), not anti-depressant.
SSRIs are benzodiazepines.

Contrary to popular opinion these days..
‘One Size Does NOT Fit All’.
Drugs like the statin family can help some, not All.
Big Pharma should know better,, but retains lawyers to settle up when bad things happen.

Working link?
It’s not just teenagers and 20-somethings. SNRIs have the same effect on a lot of people through their 50’s and beyond. Doctors prescribe them for nerve pain a lot at pain clinics. Most docs don’t have a clue or don’t care about side-effects, half life of the drugs and what withdrawal symptoms look like or feel like, much less what they can do to help their patients suffering through withdrawal because they weren’t properly weaned off of an SNRI (cymbalta is a nasty drug that I will never take again because of this).
Okrapoker is always like this. From day one on FR. Whatever the topic is.
The first is “BBC News” under “The” in the title.
The second is at the bottom where it says “(Excerpt) Read more at.” You can click on “bbc.com.”
Hope that helps.
Bingo.
I was on PPI for reflux for over a year when I started to get elevated heart rate, and then one day my heart rate shot up to like 120 out of the blue and caused me to question why, so I got off of proton pump inhibitors and after a week or two my resting heart rate started to fall back into the normal range.
Maybe not everyone gets the same side effect but that sht was crazy
“Maybe not everyone gets the same side effect”
True, statins for me, almost 30 years, PPI for me, about 20 years, no problems. They FIX problems.
I happened to run into him the first day he was here. Never changed.
I forgot what I was talking about?
