I initially had an LDL of 152 and was prescribed Atorvastatin which gave me dizziness. So I switched to Pravachol with no side effects. But I needed to increase my dosage to get under 100 LDL and Pravachol is limited to 80mg. So I switched again to 10mg of Rosuvastatin which took me from 114 down to 83 also without side effects. | ||||||||

i had the elevated liver enzymes on a higher dose (10 mg / day which is not considered a high dose) and jury is out on whether or not I perceive muscle weakness. unsure |
