I have been on statins for years but on crestor 40mg for 12 months. I've experienced major fatigue and brain fog and dose now reduced to 5mg plus another drug. Feeling better after only 1 week!

On Crestor 20mg once a day for a year then Dr. increased to 40mg a day. I'm having brain fog, pain in left side and back, nausea, headaches, and urinary tract infections. I've had a CT, Ultrasound,and Endoscopy-- all negative. Dr. said to stop Crestor for 2 weeks to see if these symptoms subside. I'm miserable and hope this is the answer to end my pain.

I took this drug (rosuvastatin) as part of the 4+ year study prior to its release to market as "Crestor". During the study I was monitored with full lab workups and mental and physical exams regularly. I never experienced ANY negative side effects from this drug, and continue to take it now, even though I have to do battle with insurance companies who would love to shift me to some cheaper generic statin--my doctor calls Crestor the "Cadillac" of statins. It is very effective in lowering my LDL and total cholesterol. For a time I did experience leg cramps at night, but self-medicated by adding more potassium to my diet, and the cramps went away. No worries! Love it!

crestor has worked well for me. however, i am only taking 5mg. too many side effects taking anything more, keep that thought if you have a lot of side effects.

My legs feel like I am always in quicksand, other than that it has done its job.
