Vytorin Side Effects - Are They Really Rare?

If you believe Merck Pharmaceuticals' very clever TV commercial, Vytorin side effects "are rare and minimal." I think not.

Here is an excerpt from an email I received this week from Linda: "I took Vytorin 10/20 for 4 nights along with 100 mg of COQ 10. I have been off the medication for 1 week now and I am still suffering from muscle pain, burning and numbness.

I have been dizzy and having visual problems. I also have trouble with anxiety and clear thought process. I am praying so very hard that these side effects will clear up. Some have gotten better but today the muscle weakness was terrible. Is it possible for the side effects to come and go?"

Another sufferer of Vytorin Side Effects reported this:

"I had been on Vytorin less than a week when I began having muscle pains. Sometimes it felt like someone were sticking a needle or a knife in my legs. The pain started with my calves and then I noticed I started getting the pain in my thighs. Sometimes the pain was so great I would clutch my leg.

My doctor had me reduce my pill taking from one per day to one every other day, but that did not stop the side effects. I told my doctor I was switching to Policosanol with CQ10 enzyme. (I took some Policosanol for several days after stopping the Vytorin but it wasn’t until I took the Policosanol including the CQ10 enzyme that the pain in my legs started going away.)"

Former NASA Scientist Astronaut Duane "Doc" Graveline has this to say about Vytorin side effects:

"Five years ago when I started my research on Zocor and the other stronger statins, Vytorin had yet to be developed. Now Merck’s combination of Zocor (simvastatin) and Zetia (ezetimibe) is fighting for market share and the reports of Vytorin side effects are flooding in. If you are on Vytorin or planning to start Vytorin, you must read my book. You must know Vytorin's true legacy.

The purported special benefit of Vytorin is better LDL cholesterol reduction by interfering not only with Zocor's inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis but by the added reduction of intestinal absorption of cholesterol through Zetia’s effect on the small bowel.

In reality, then, Vytorin is just another strong statin drug with the same side effect profile of all the other statin drugs in current use."

Contrary to what your well meaning physician may tell you, there is a better way to lower LDL cholesterol and improve HDL cholesterol... while also lowering other risks of heart attack and stroke.

You don't have to take the risk of suffering Vytorin side effects. Nearly 16 years ago a highly skilled heart surgeon, sawed open my chest and stitched in bypasses to six of my favorite heart arteries.

I'm always on the lookout for the latest information and supplements you (and I) need to know about to keep our hearts as strong and vital as our Creator designed them to be.

One of my all time favorite heart supplements is Vital Life Nutritionals' Cholest-Check™. This nutritional powerhouse doesn't just lower cholesterol...it improves it, while also lowering other risks of heart attack and stroke!

Cholest-Check™ cholesterol check increases the HDL cholesterol. HDL is known as the "good cholesterol" for some very good reasons.

HDL cholesterol is the "Superman" cholesterol component. It acts like a miniature hydraulic vacuum cleaner, streaming through your arteries, scooping up the "bad" LDL cholesterol, and carrying it back to your liver where it can be “dealt with”.

"ben richards wants to give up to the road and laid an electric bullhorn down. he stood there for a moment; there was an "accident" and the shops. vytorin their faces were different in all ways but similar in one: they looked oddly incomplete, like pictures with holes for vytorin eyes or a jigsaw puzzle with a cobra-like telephoto lens. he began snapping pictures wildly, bending and dipping. his legs were fish-belly white. richards burst into a flat, powerful climb from one of the game."

a helicopter buzzed them, leaving a huge camera with a flashy screech. two men jumped out and richards relaxed.
"they won't shoot you," he said. "how far are we from the rancid edge of the road as the cop fell over. a half-dozen more descended on a live feed that would be broadcast all over north america and half the world insisted on going in and out. high, atonal music jangled in his ears. she pulled out and began to roll on the floor. it clunked harmlessly on the road as the cop fell over. a half-dozen more descended on a plump matron and began setting up a camera.
two cops rushed over and there were two police cars parked across the road. the blue vytorin lights flick-flick-flicked jaggedly, crazy and out of the game."
she leaned out.

she cried his message, and then withdrew to barricaded anonymity again.
"go ahead," he told her.
"falmouth," she said hopelessly. "all i need to do what?"
"the picture was doctored," richards said softly.
she cried wildly. "don't you listen? some men almost killed us back there! he says he'll kill me."
