[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10 mg is a tiny dose; you are very unlikely to have any side effects. And on the flip side, a low dose can bring down your numbers a lot. Nothing to be scared of.[/quote] I don't know how true this or how it works but I've been on a statin for over 20 years now. Started with 10mg of Lipitor and then 20mg, then 40mg because they wanted the LDL lower and lower. Last year my cardiologist changed it from 40mg of Lipitor to 10mg of Crestor...so OP said she is starting with 10mg of Crestor which is where I am. Not so sure this is a low dose.[/quote]
