I've been taking Crestor 40mg Tablets for about a week now. I started this medication after my doctor noticed my cholesterol levels were pretty high. I've been reading up on the side effects, but I can't seem to find anything about numbness, especially in the lips. Is this a known side effect? Should I be concerned? I'm not sure if I should call my doctor or just wait it out. I've had a few other minor side effects, like stomach pain and joint pain, but nothing this unusual. I'm glad I found this community because I'm definitely feeling a bit anxious about this. Fingers crossed someone has some answers!

I've been prescribed Rosuvastatin 40mg tablets to manage my high cholesterol levels. I've heard that it's effective, but I'm curious about potential side effects. Has anyone else taken this medication? How did you find the experience? Were there any side effects or was it smooth sailing? I'm particularly worried about muscle and liver-related issues. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!
