My surgeon today is getting me to stop my ezetimibe saying it will help the leg pains/burning. Has anyone stopped and gotten relief on their legs? If so, how long did it take for it to start helping?
How long for ezetimibe to leave your system?

I also am experiencing a burning sensation in my upper left arm. The pain started after I started taking Ezetimibe daily. I used to take Zetia but my insurance no longer covers that drug, but I never had an issue with Zetia. Not sure if Ezetimibe is the cause of the burning. but I will stop taking it to see if the burning sensation in my arm disappears. Seeing my physician today to talk about this.
