The reason
behind this is that fetuses and small infants need cholesterol
for brain and body development. Cerivastatin or Baycol can
deprive them of needed substances. Click

Baycol
side effects occur if taken with certain drugs. The levels
of Cerivastatin can occur with antibiotic erythromycin. This
same result can also occur with ketoconazole, itrazconazole,
nefazodone, cyclosporine, and grapefruit juice. The levels
of absorption may be reduced when Baycol is taken along with
Cholestyramine.
The greatest
danger with of Baycol side effects exists when used in combination
with gemfibrozil, another cholesterol-lowering drug. Gemfibrozil
Baycol remains available in Japan, where the doses of the drug
are lower and gemfibrozil is not available. Click

Rhabdomyolysis
is a very serious condition (even life-threatening) where muscle
cells are destroyed and then released into the bloodstream.
The conditions can be very painful in the lower back and calves.
Fatal
rhabdomyolysis is
the most severe example of this condition in which a severe
muscle adverse reaction occurs as a reaction to a cholesterol-lowering
(lipid-lowering) product. There is a disintegration
of the striated muscle cells that causes myoglobin to be
excreted into the urine. This, in turn, causes a toxic
reaction that can lead to kidney failure. Rhabdomyolysis
is also known as crush syndrome. Click

Rhabdomyolysis
affects the kidneys through the myoglobin, a pigment found
in skeletal muscle that contains iron. When damage occurs to
the skeletal muscle, the iron-containing myoglobin is released
into the bloodstream. As the kidneys try to filter the myoglobin
out of the bloodstream, they can occlude the structures of
the kidney, causing kidney failure or tubular necrosis. Necrotic
skeletal muscle (deadened tissue in the area) can shift fluid
from the bloodstream to the muscle that can lower blood flow
for the kidneys. Rhabdomyolysis affects 10 in 100,000 people
and does not seem to be more prevalent by gender or race. Click
