creator: Kalra, Dr Sanjay
subject: JOURNALS
description: Statins, or 3-hydroxyl-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors,  are cholesterol-lowering drugs which are frequently used in the primary and secondary  prevention of coronary artery disease. Current research and recommendations support  and encourage more extensive use of these drugs.  However, statin usage is limited by many factors, including a high incidence of  statin-associated myalgia and myopathy. This review focuses on the use of Coenzyme Q  in statin-associated myopathy.
