Guest guest Posted September 5, 2001 Report Share Posted September 5, 2001 About a month ago a high cholesterol drug named Bactroyl was removed fom the markets. The same manufacturer of this drug makes all the other high cholesterol drugs out in the market place. I myself was put on Zocor 2-1-01 and did not realize the terrible side effects until about 5-15-01. My body felt numb all over. I could not work or get out of bed anymore! My arms and legs did not function properly. It took about 3 weeks to get the feeling back in my body like I had had before. If you are on this drug or any drug for high cholesterol it is highly recommended you consult with your physician. My liver enzymes tested wonderfully each time my doctor took a blood test but my body became so weak it could not do anything anymore. I was tested for everything including HIV and nothing came up! I have been having back problems also and feel this drug has escalated my back problems. I just want to warn you out there in case you're taking any kind of high cholesterol drug. It may be more harmful then you know! TJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
