Mevacor and Memory Loss

Mevacor and Memory Loss: Summary

For people on Mevacor, memory loss appears to happen infrequently (if at all). Make sure to talk with your healthcare provider or pharmacist if you have concerns about Mevacor and memory loss. Also, keep in mind that it is not possible for your healthcare provider to know whether you will have a side effect with a medicine that you have never taken. If you notice any memory loss while taking Mevacor, talk to your healthcare provider. He or she may recommend adjusting the Mevacor dosage or switching to another cholesterol medication.
