Statin Induced Rhabdomyolysis with Non Oliguric Renal Failure: A Rare Presentation.

Statins are safe, well tolerated, efficient and time tested drugs for the management of hypercholesterolemia, and thus play a cardinal role in the management of patients with heart disease. Although safe in clinical practice, they are associated with adverse effects, clinically the most important and most severe being muscle related complications/myotoxicity. Rhabdomyolysis, though rare, is the most severe form of myotoxicity.
