Baycol

Baycol has already been taken off the market, because of adverse side effects. The medication has been linked to muscle cell breakdown. In very rare cases, the resulting disease called rhabdomyolysis can result in kidney and other organ damage. The medication was intended to lower dangerous levels of cholesterol. However, it caused muscle cells to enter the blood stream instead. If you have high cholesterol, there are safer choices than Baycol. If you are still taking this medication, and start showing signs of muscle deterioration, discontinue use immediately, and consult your doctor. Your physician can prescribe something different that will still lower your cholesterol, without causing more harm than good.
