Are Tiredness And Depression Side Effects Of Pravastatin?
I was put on Pravastatin about 3 months ago. But I have been tired, sleepy, achy, depressed and I am thinking about quiting. I have been told in previous years my good cholesteral was 9 or 90 and would never have a heart attack. Although HDL is high lately my LDL is also high, but I thought they averaged them together.
