A number of people have been made aware of Zocor side effects including Zocor muscle injury and Zocor rhabdomyolysis, because of the mounting number of Zocor lawsuits dealing with these particular side effects, but plaintiffs who have experienced other side effects may also be eligible to file a lawsuit and seek damages from drug makers. Other Zocor side effects tend to get less attention than those having to do with muscle injury, but they can be just as harmful and cause a patient just as many problems.
Zocor cardiomyopathy side effect
Some Zocor patients may experience symptoms such as breathlessness, fatigue, irregular heartbeat, dizziness, and swelling of the legs, feet, and ankles. These symptoms could be a sign of Zocor cardiomyopathy, a heart disease that causes improper heart function. It is believed that Zocor heart problems could be caused by a depletion of a certain enzyme, which Zocor may be linked to. Coenzyme Q10 is essential to proper heart function and, as Zocor may deplete it, this may lead to heart problems.
