How long have u been on simvastatin? The dose can be increased to 80mg if necessary. cpk is an emzyme found in both skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle.

Return to doctor for further investigation of these muscle aches.
Zosta -10) also has the same effect as Storvas 10 mg. I have had cholecystectomy about 5 years back.
I think they are in the same drug class, I've taken both with the similar results. As I recall, I was changed from lipitor to simvastatin because simvastatin isn't as strong a statin because of some very strong congestive heart meds that impact the liver and kidneys. Factors that can change liver functions include weight gain, alcohol consumption, exercise levels and diet, so it takes a health professional, which I'm not, to ferret out cause for blood test changes.
Last week at the doctor's for a check up, my blood pressure was normal, heart rate 70 beats per minute, so he reduced my already-lowest-dose-for-a-pill BP medicine (lisinopril/hydrochlorthiazide ), with a recheck of my BP this week.
So this week, slightly higher (normal range) blood pressure but a heart rate at 44 beats per minute!!

I have been taking Simvastatin on and off for years. About two years ago my doctor added ezetimibe to my regimen. It has been lowering my bad cholesterol how ever the first of this month I missed taking them for about a week and for the first time in years I felt less fatigued. I do have Fibromyalgia which is usually the cause of my fatigue, but this is a different type of fatigue. I have not restarted either of the cholesterol meds back because I have felt so much better.
An anti-cholesterol effect provides a ready explanation as to how SIM inhibits extracellular virion production (i.e. structural assembly) of HBV. How SIM reduces DNA intracellular intermediates of HBV remains to be elucidated. It is unlikely that SIM is working as a polymerase inhibitor, since it does not appear to be structurally related to nucleosides/tides. Thus, the mechanism of anti-HBV action by SIM needs further investigation.
