Muscular effects of statins in the elderly female: a review.

Clinical interventions in aging - 1 Jan 2013

Bhardwaj Shilpa, Selvarajah Shalini, Schneider Eric B

Abstract excerpt

Statins have demonstrated substantial benefits in supporting cardiovascular health. Older individuals are more likely to experience the well-known muscle-related side effects of statins compared with younger individuals. Elderly females may be especially vulnerable to statin-related muscle disorder. This review will collate and discuss statin-related muscular effects, examine their molecular and genetic basis,...
