However, side effects like CPK elevation and muscle symptoms like myalgia, myopathy up to Rhabdomyolysis may occur especially in the elderly. Objective: to assess the level of CPK in elderly patients using statins in a real life settings whether the patient had muscle symptoms or not. Methods: Patients aged 65 years old or over will be divided into 2 Groups: Group 1: comprising 900 patients on moderate to high intensity statin therapy for at least 6 weeks. Group 2: 100 age and gender matched individuals not on statin therapy as a control group. A simple Questionnaire was prepared to assess muscle symptoms of the patients and related CPK elevation. Results: 5.1% of the study group had muscle symptoms and CPK elevation, the majority of them had CPK elevation with muscle symptoms (60.8%), muscle symptoms without CPK elevation occurred in (39.1%) while only (6.5%) had CPK elevation without muscle symptoms. Simvastatin was the most associated type with CPK elevation and/or muscle symptoms, accounting for 15.6 % of the patients used this type. DM & IHD turned out to be important predictors for CPK elevation, accounting for 65.2% and 71.7% respectively | ||
