Metoprolol

Metoprolol (25mg) for angina pectoris

For a long time i've had problems with pain in my breast. I was short of breath and felt very tired. After treatment in the hospital i got to hear that my heart isn't getting enough oxygen. Shortly thereafter i got this medicine and i feel way better. I have absolutely no issues with side effects.

Simvastatin

Simvastatin (40mg) for angina pectoris

I'm taking this medicine because of osteoarthritis and heart cramps. No abnormalities were found in the heart, but the specialist recommended using preventive Simvastatin. From the first day i still haven't seen any side effects. taking a single tablet with food is enough.

Crestor

Rosuvastatin (20mg) for angina pectoris

After having symptoms of chest spasms and an irregular heartbeat, I was referred to a cardiologist. An ECG confirmed that I have angina pectoris. Straight on to blood thinners, beta blockers and cholesterol-lowering medicines like Cresto. To now few or no further symptoms. Every year check-up with the cardiologist. just great.

Simvastatin

Simvastatin (40mg) for angina pectoris

my husband got this for a small blockage in his coronary artery. which I think makes it very easy to deal with. It was discovered because he had a tia, but the side effects that he has are cramp in his legs, crooked fingers, not nice for him. I use Crestor, no side effects. that also reduces cholesterol.

Simvastatin

Simvastatin (40mg) for angina pectoris

Because I'm suspected of having angina pectoris (I am supposed to be having the tests next week), I've been prescribed this medicine in advance and from day one I've been really nauseous and often dizzy and light-headed. I just don't feel quite right. And I've only been taking them for 2 weeks… But the doctor says I'm not allowed to stop taking them.

Simvastatin

Simvastatin (40mg) for angina pectoris

this medicine makes you feel like you're 80! (80 and falling apart). Muscles cause me pain and then there is the disturbed sleep and the tiredness etc etc.

Crestor

11/22/2015 | | 80moderated by Philip
Rosuvastatin (5mg) for angina pectoris

The overnight pain I have in my muscles is almost to plan. This is because there are very few nights which are pain-free. When it does hurt overnight and need to get up to go to the bathroom, the pain disappears spontaneously. Soon after getting back into bed, the pain usually comes back.
