Statins, such as simvastatin, modify cholesterol, but their prolonged use can cause memory impairment and mental confusion. Some studies show an increased risk, while others indicate protection against dementia, showing attenuated results.
Side effects such as muscle pain and digestive issues can also affect quality of life. It is important to discuss potential side effects with your doctor and monitor any cognitive symptoms.
In conclusion, self-medication and prolonged use of certain medications can negatively impact memory and cognitive function. Patients should always consult their physicians before starting or continuing treatment to discuss the risks and benefits and explore safer alternatives.
For your cognitive health and overall well-being, it is essential to have informed discussions about the risks of medications and to explore non-pharmacological treatments when possible.
