Brief Answer:
Simvastatin should be replaced.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your query and understand your concerns.

The answer to your question is straight forward, Simvastatin use is accompanied with significantly worse sleep quality.

Finasteride can cause sleep disorders too, but Simvastatin is well known and studied to cause sleep disorders.

You should start to take your drugs in the morning instead of before bed, or can switch to Pravastatin eg.

Hope this helps. I remain at your disposal for further questions and clarifications.

Take care.
