Started Repatha - Side Effects

The person that posted getting side effects the same as statins from this medication is just talking… There is no scientific study that says a persons body will reject the medication. The person is also blaming the drug for an upper respiratory infection, and has no proof the drug is what is causing it. Only go with the scientific studies that you can review and not what somebody says as being truth! There is so much subjective, miss information that people post so beware! I have known people on the medication for years and that has not happened to them. But again that is hearsay from me again read scientific studies.

One of the published side effects of Repatha is flu symptoms. Also, joint and muscle pain and back pain. I had back pain so bad that taking a steep hurt my back. I’ve done yoga for over 10 years and my muscles couldn’t hold poses and my joints hurt so much i couldn’t do anything I had been doing. I am off of it for a couple of months and my body is coming back. I can do yoga again and can walk 10,000 steps a day again. Not everyone has side effects. I believe those that tell me they do.

If I am having muscle aches, joint aches, headaches, loss of muscle mass, sore throat, runny nose, congestion from this medication, it is toxic to me since I am not feeling/functioning as a normal human being. That is why I will be taking the detox.
There are those of us with extreme sensitivity to medications. I’m just saying that if you are one of these people and you have had problems with statins watch out. It is likely that you may also end up with problems on this medication.
