Summary: A new discovery may explain why so many people abandon cholesterol-lowering statins because of muscle pain and weakness.
Researchers found that certain statins can latch onto a key muscle
protein and trigger a tiny but harmful calcium leak inside muscle
cells. That leak may weaken muscles directly or activate processes
that slowly break them down, offering a long-sought explanation for statin-related aches.
