I am to take Roseday 5 mg to lower my LDL cholesterol level 119 mg/dl. My HDL is 29 mg/dl & Uric acid is 7.6 mg/dl. Is there any side effect of Roseday 5 mg ? ## We've been having trouble locating specific information on this medication. The listings just say it is a Statin drug that is used to help lower cholesterol. My best guess from the name would be that the active ingredient is probably Rosuvastatin. What country is it from? If you can post back with more information, it may help me located more details on it. And all medications carry the risk of side effects, for statin drugs, they might include: nausea, dizziness, headache and joint/muscle aches. ## My BP level is 140/96 from last one year.

Since starting Fenofibrate 160mg I've been having headaches daily... Sometimes my muscle in my ankle hurts as well. It's a pain I never had before. I'm only 34 years old so I think I'm going just stop taking them and just watch what i eat and workout. ## This medication is well known to cause such side effects, according to FDA reports. You may also experience nausea, and dizziness. Are you on any other medications? How long have you been taking it? 34 is very young for high cholesterol. Is it a family health issue?

Discontinued fenobibrate on Monday and started having a lot of diarrhea today (Thursday). Not sure if it's caused by stopping this medication? ## Yes, that is possible, when you stop any medication. You may also experience nausea, fever, chills, dizziness, and headache, according to FDA reports. Why did you stop taking it? Are you on any other medications? Have you consulted your physician?

My Dr put me on Fenofibrate along with another cholesterol med. Now I have severe stomach bloating. I am so embarrassed. Should I cut my Fenofibrate in 1/2? I don't know what Dr to trust anymore. I am 54 and am so confused. ## Hello, Lisa! How are you? What other medication are you taking? According to FDA reports, most medications can cause bloating, but it is hard to say, without knowing what all you are taking. Why were you prescribed more than one medication to lower cholesterol? More recent peer reviewed research is showing that high cholesterol is not a contributing risk factor for heart disease, or heart attack. While more studies need to be done, doctors generally shouldn't resort to immediately medicating people.

Last month they started me on fenofibrate 145mg. I am worried as I only have one kidney and with this med my kidney hurts and my stomach hurts! My question is should I even be on this drug with one kidney? ## I would suggest having it checked out by your doctor, this medication has been known to cause some kidney issues, including kidney failure, according to the FDA reports. Are you on any other medications? If you are taking this to lower cholesterol, you should be aware that recent studies are casting doubt on the necessity of doing so, several peer reviewed reports found that having high cholesterol does not raise the risk of heart disease, heart attack, or etc. Of course, as with any given finding, more research is needed, before things are completely certain, so proceed with cauti...

I have been on Lipitor for cholesterol of 298. I occasionally take a Xanax 2.5 to help sleep and anxieties. What diet pill can I take to help speed up my metabolism and lose weight? ## Hi Michelle, If you're referring to prescription drugs, there's always Phentermine as an option; but I'd suggest staying away from fat burners, as they tend to put a lot of stress on the body, let alone the side effects of prescription ones. Have you just tried changing your diet? If your goal is to lose weight fast, I find juicing fresh fruits and veggies to be the quickest option, while at the same time you're also increasing many aspects of your overall health and well-being. So it's a win win situation in my opinion. I hope this advice helps! ## Can I take levothyroxine for low thy...

I have been on this drug for Hypercholesterolaemia on and off for a couple of years but each time I have a constant chesty cough and sinus problems. The cough just doesn't stop and I get hardly any sleep. I used to take codeine tablets at night and this stopped the cough however I didn't want to continue on these as my doctor said they are addictive. So I am at my wits end. I have been on statins but my doctor took me off them as I suffered with side effects of painful muscles. I am getting really depressed as now I do not want to go out to public places as I always take really bad coughing fits. ## Hello, Liz! How are you?
