Anybody here ever hear of statins causing mental side effects like paranoia and aggression? Its the only medication change my spouse has had lately but the side effects listed on the pharmacy sheet dont include anything like that.

Check the clinical trials. He may be hypersensitive, in which case he could be experiencing symptoms of much higher doses than what the pharmacy sheet accounts for. Source: This happened to me.

^this

i found the clinical trial info on wikipedia of all places btw

plus, its possible its interacting unfortunately with his other meds? something else to look into anyway

I havent been able to find anything in the trials, but there are several like, anecdotal case studies that sound EXACTLY like his symptoms. Paranoia, aggression, emotional perception issues, etc.
