Psychotic episode resulting from simvastatin medication 20mg/day. These were daily occurrences in my life until i stopped taking the medicine. They lasted between 10 and 30 minutes.

  • Seriously, is this individual prone to or had previous history of psychosis, depression, bi-polar and taking medication, ie seretonin uptake inhibitors, lithium, haldol? Please get back to me asap, use PM is necessary.

  • @anyusmoon1 the answer to all your questions is no. i never took any mind alterining drugs in my youth either (which is what the medics suspected). i was a normally functioning healthy adult until i started on the statins.

  • Simvastatin will make your kidneys shut down. My doctor wouldn't change my drug to something else. I stopped taking this crap. I feel these Pharms are doing a soft kill on people! I'm suspicious of everything now! Check your meds manufacturer out!

  • @Razamabaz If you're experiencing muscle cramps, get off it. See your doc immediately and make the switch. Take it from a pharmacist--statins definitely do cause muscle pain, and it can lead to permanent muscle breakdown in rare cases. Get to your doc ASAP.

  • I've never heard of this side effect before. From a medical standpoint, that is really interesting! From a personal standpoint, I'm sorry you went through that. I hope nothing else you take in the future has that effect.

    Statins are funny things. They do have a lot of benefits to them, but they also come with a lot of side effects, some of which can be very harmful.

  • statins are senseless, harmful and deadly. Colesterol = animal fat. No animal fat > no colesterol. Go vegan and no need of statins. I took off my mother from statins within a month. Just with diet. Don't trust the medical industry. Its a business

  • @TheSnotrag2009 Not everyone suffers the same side effects and a lot of people suffer no side effects at all. Luck of the draw I suppose.

  • Simvastatin can cause all sorts of problems for some individuals. I am on Simvastatin and I am sure, in fact I am positive I am suffering side effects from these tablets. Fatigue, memory loss, cramps, confusion and all these are some of the side effects you can get from taking these. Google Simvastatin and psychosis.

  • Nice side table.

  • @loupremo you know this is weird, I think they just want attention because I am on Simvastin 20 MG a day and I'm not acting like that!

  • The most important question to ask yourself is does my doctor know about this product and if not why?

    Bios Life Slim is listed in the PDR it's a natural product that reduces bad cholesterol and increase good cholesterol without harmful side effects, it also helps with weight loss and diabetes without stimulants
