Lately, I've had some lower back pain that is rare for me. Is that considered a side effect of Repatha?? Curious.

Yes, that can be a side effect and it happens to me occasionally. I do take one Doan’s pills and it disappears in 20 minutes! Compared to the pain I was Experiencing with statins It is so minor and fleeting

Interesting question! I never considered that my recent backache could be from Repatha, but sure enough it listed as a common side effect. I take an extra tylenol and do some stretching because it is the only thing I can tolerate that lowers my LDL.
