Rosuvastatin was a big improvement for me over atorvastatin, re: side effects (including depression!) And at a much lower dose. My cardiologist wouldn't listen, so I went to my Primary care and she was happy to help me make the switch.

My PCP prescribed Rosuvastatin, 10 mg. 3 times per week. It has not caused any problems for me and I trust my doctor. He always seems to know what to do for me. With all good wishes, @joybringer1

Hi Terry…can you detail what side effects you had from atorvastatin? I take it and am trying to determine if some of my symptoms are from the atorvastatin? Determining what is normal neuropathy issues and what might be a statin side effect are difficult for me. I’m thinking my balance, lightheadedness is elevated when taking the atorvastatin. I’m curious what your experiences have been…thanks in advance
