"Extreme Dizziness Blurry vision Very low blood pressure Extreme Fatigue Cold ankles and feet Pain in right leg like buzzing and some cramps In the first two times taking it. An adjustment to my BP meds, diuretic, and ALL the symptoms went away. Looking forward to great results my next blood test saying my cholesterol is in a great range! BTW I take 140mg/ml injections once every 2 weeks. Very easy process."

"I have used Repatha for 6 years. Previously, I tried stating, but could not tolerate them. My LDL when I started was 100, and now it is in the 40's. It is easily administered. I like the syringe best, but my pharmacy normally has only the SureClick autoinjector. It's okay. I prefer the syringe."
