The more known side effects of Statin are liver and muscle pain and damage. Lesser known side effects are digestive problems, rash or flushing, increased sugar or type 2 diabetes, depression and irritability, sleep problems, sexual function problems, fatigue, dizziness and a sense of detachment. In addition, on Statin labels, the FDA warns of memory loss or confusion which can be reversed once one stops taking the medication.
