A large study looking at the sleep patterns of people who took Zocor found that they had significantly worse sleep quality compared with people who took other cholesterol-lowering drugs.
Zocor is fat soluble, meaning it can more easily penetrate cell membranes. It travels across the blood-brain barrier, which normally protects the brain from blood-borne chemicals.
Millions of people take Zocor to lower their cholesterol.
However, it is VERY rare for anyone to need cholesterol-lowering drugs. In my practice of over 20,000 patients I only put four or five patients on them, as they had genetic problems that required it. If you or someone you know is taking them, odds are very high, greater than 100 to 1, that you don't need it.
Instead of taking drugs, follow the simple lifestyle guidelines below to take care of your heart and arterial health. You have the Internet at your disposal and with some time, effort and objectivity you can easily discern the truth. I suspect you will come to the same conclusion I reached many years ago as a far better option to normalizing your cholesterol than taking drugs:
