ZOCOR® Side Effects
In 2010, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a warning to patients on the dangers of using ZOCOR® in the highest approved dose. It determined that individuals using the drug to control cholesterol can be at a higher risk for serious side effects, including serious muscle pain and kidney injuries. Other serious side effects include myopathy, rhabdomyolysis, kidney damage (which can lead to kidney failure) and even death.
