Abstract: |
Statins have been widely used as a first-line drug therapy for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The growing population on statins and number of related studies have raised greater concern about their risk of adverse effects on the skeletal muscles, liver and kidneys and its association with diabetes. In this review, we summarized the adverse effects of statins by exploring the literature available and propose prevention strategies, thus providing evidence for their clinical application. |
