Statin side effects

2018-09-12 17:20:12
I've been on Crestor for several months now, and I'm having bloating and stomach problems. Will it hurt anything if I stop the statin just a few days to see if this is the problem? if it is, I will talk to my doc about trying something different.

Side effects are rare with rosuvastatin. So instead of stopping the medication, talk to your doctor about the problem first. He might need to examine you .
