Anyone here take Repatha? [View all]

It's a relatively new LDL lowering drug, taken by subq injection either once or twice per month. Is typically taken with or without statins and without in particular if the patient cannot tolerate statins.

Anyhow, it works extremely well in reducing LDL but does have side effects. I have been taking it for a few months now but am concerned because I am getting chronic muscle pain, weakness and stiffness.

Was wondering if anyone else here was experiencing the same?
