About this episode
Statin allergic reactions are rare but do occur. More common is a condition called “statin intolerance”, which can be due to other biochemical reactions or genetic factors. It is known that certain genes, notably the SLCO1B1 gene, which is involved in the liver’s uptake of statin drugs, plays a role in statin-muscle complications and muscle pain.
