Vytorin, which is generically known as a combination of ezetimibe and simvastatin, is a drug meant to help lower cholesterol. The drug is prescribed in cases in which a statin does not control cholesterol by itself. Although the efficacy ezetimibe has been questioned, it has been found that when it works in concert with a statin it is better than atorvastatin and rosuvastatin at lowering lipid levels. It is also marketed under the name Inergy.

However, Vytorin still has many serious side effects. These Vytorin, specifically those associated with ezetimibe, side effects include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Growth of Plaque in Arteries

  • Cardiovascular Events

  • Gasto-Intestinal Disturbances

  • Headaches

  • Fatigue

  • Mylgia

  • Arthralgia

  • Myopathy

  • Rhabdomylosis (muscle breakdown)

  • Pancreatitis

  • Rash

  • Hepatitis

  • Cholecystitis

  • Thrombocytopenia

  • Raised Creatine Kinase

However, because Vytorin has the simvastatin added to it, it also has many of the side effects associated with statins. These Vytorin adverse effects include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Myopathy

  • Diabetes

  • Myositis

  • Myalfias

  • Muscle Cramps

  • Nerve Damage

  • Polyneuropathy

  • Rhabdomylosis

Vytorin's serious side effects are a cause for concern for patients suffering from high cholesterol.

If you or a loved one has been injured as result of taking Vytorin, you might be entitled to compensation. A Vytorin law firm can help you pin liability on the correct party.
