Statins are a class of drugs that work by lowering cholesterol levels in the blood. Statins block enzymes essential to production of cholesterol. While statins have been known to help patients control their cholesterol levels, statins also are linked to dangerous side effects, including rhabdomyolysis and cardiomyopathy.

If you or a loved one suffered any side effects related to statins, you may be entitled to compensation. Don’t hesitate to contact a statins lawyer in Oklahoma to learn about your rights. Call Hansen Dirani & Associates Law Offices: 877-583-0700.

What is rhabdomyolysis and cardiomyopathy?

Statin drugs are linked to an increased risk of rhabdomyolysis, a serious condition in which muscle tissue is broken down and enters the bloodstream. The condition can lead to kidney failure and death.

Another serious condition linked to statin drugs is cardiomyopathy, a dangerous weakening of the heart muscle or a change in the structure of the heart muscle. Cardiomyopathy sufferers have trouble getting blood pumped adequately through their system.

Statins include Vytorin, Zocor as well as Simvastatin, among other medications.
