The article reports on the findings of the study conducted by Women and Health Protection regarding the effectiveness and safety of statin medications for women in Canada. The study shows that some statin users who had mood and memory problems also had muscle problems and weakness, which would affect their ability to undertake proven heart-protective exercise programs. Researchers note that statin exposure in younger women was linked with higher risks of miscarriage and profound birth defects. |
