Do statin drugs sometimes also cause depression and anxiety?

Question:

Answers:
If you're taking them for a long period of time, yes, that's a possibility. They also kill your liver and cause all kinds of horrible things to happen. Lipitor is bad stuff, and though most doctors I know agree with me, it still seems to be prescribed an awful lot.

Other Answers:
sometimes

I was not aware of that side effect. They can cause hot flashes in men. I am not sure about women. You can help prevent that by taking a baby aspirin when you take your statin.

that is not a toxicity effect known by statins in approved therapeutical doses
