Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Hi, i hv been using Fibator (fenofibrate and atorvastatin) for lowering mainly tryglycerides and cholestrol, experiencing muscle weakness mentioned by others as one of the side effects, what r the safe drug or supplement i can take to lower my triglycerides, which without the mentioned drug goes in the range or 450 or so even after oil and sugarfree and gluten free diet. regards, sunny From: Fran - SOS <sos.owner@...>LDN Support Group <low dose naltrexone >Sent: Wed, April 21, 2010 12:49:01 AMSubject: [low dose naltrexone] Re: MS Blog Hi Francie & Group,I both saddens and sickens me when I see Big Pharma try to approve an already very dangerous class of drugs (statins) for other conditions. Their recent attempts are to prevent Alzheimer's disease and treat cancer patients, when there are clinical trials providing info to the contrary! And now those suffering from MS?Please read all the literature you can find on the internet about the millions of people that are suffering long term and for some, permanent side effects from statin (cholesterol lowering) drugs. CoQ10 does help curtail some of statin's side effects, but it didn't protect my husband.Francie, can you please post the link to the site that publishes the Living with Multiple Sclerosis newsletter?FranOn 4/20/2010 10:10 AM, Francie Stull wrote: In the Living with Multiple Sclerosis newsletter, they have an article on how using some cholesterol drugs MAY slow down MS. When I went to the site, there is no notice of the horrible side effects of Lipitor, etc., when one does not at least use CoQ-10 with it. The liver makes cholesterol and these drugs do stop the liver from making it, BUT it also is forced to quit making very important and vital lipids that the body needs to survive. The CoQ-10 for instance is essential for muscle protection and your heart is the most important muscle in the body. Just be careful and know what you are doing, if you decide to go on these drugs. The biggest problem to me, is that muscle weakness is also a symptom of MS and I fear that MS sufferers will not cue to the fact that the Lipitor or Crestor is actually causing the damage, until it is too late. ..
