Statins Side Effect #4: Feeling Unwell
At any one time, we are at risk from pathogens that could potentially make us feel unwell if they were able to. Thankfully, though, we have strong defenses that protect us 24/7 from anything that might harm us. If our defenses do become overwhelmed and need help, we also have medicines that can help them win the battle.
Sometimes, though, the medicines that are helping us can also make us feel ill. Patients taking statins will often complain that they are feeling unwell and that they feel nauseous. In some cases, the patient might even vomit. You should arrange to speak with your doctor if the symptoms are too severe.
