Follow up, I took Zita for 7 days. On Day 5 my hips and lower back began to ache. Next they got stiff and didn't want to function. I stopped it. Last Cholesterol lowering medication I'm trying. I had tried Crestor before and had the same kind of outcome but in my neck and shoulders. So it's Oatmeal and Celery for me. Had a metabolic panel done yesterday. We'll see what the numbers are later.

@grandmajan- This surprises me because Zita works in the stomach. Perhaps something else might be going on? I feel some achiness with Crestor but I also have some arthritis.

Most of the side effects of Zita happen in your digestive system.

Do you have any of these symptoms too?
