4. Crestor can affect the skeletal muscles causing Myopathy and Rhabdomyolysis when taken in high doses of 40 mg per dose.3 The risks also increase in patients with age greater than 65 years, having renal problems. Rhabdomyolysis is a disease of muscular illness in which the muscles start breaking down and releasing lot of myoglobin into the blood.4 The presence of excessive amount of myoglobin in the blood increases the risk of kidney failure.
The chiropractic therapy for Rhabdomyolysis includes providing rest and rehydration to the body so that muscles can recover faster. Most of the patients of such muscular dystrophy are treated through intravenous supply of liquids along with curative drugs to dilate the blood and decrease the risks of getting more severe kidney and renal problems.
