Abstract
This study highlights patient experience with statin-associated muscle symptoms and the strategies recommended by providers in managing these symptoms. More research is needed to develop patient-centric and evidence-based approaches to managing statin-associated muscle symptoms, which is especially important in light of recent data showing increased cardiovascular risk among those who discontinue statin therapy.
