Inclisiran for High Cholesterol "Just had 2nd injection…side effects abound (headache, nausea, muscle weakness and pain, low backache, constipation, ridiculous levels of fatigue, and much more) and never fully dissipated after 1st injection…fully started up again with this injection…all are annoying and affect quality of life…arthritis pain in hands and feet, and cramping in feet, legs, hands are among the worst along with the continual migraine. The medication definitely dramatically lowered my LDL…just not sure I want to continue."

Inclisiran for High Cholesterol "Painful joints when moving around after sitting. Troublesome cough. Feeling nauseous frequently, especially in the morning before breakfast. Night cramps every night disturbing sleep, and therefore causing tiredness the next day. Extreme fatigue during the day needing an afternoon nap."

"I was okay for the first month of the vaccine, and now fatigue, cramp, and UTI. I could not tolerate any of the statins, even in small doses, but while my good cholesterol was good, my LDL was bad! While I have had migraines in the past and cramps in my leg, it seems worse. So I am unsure if the side effect of fatigue is old age, as I have never been old before, lol. I am a 78-year-old woman who is fit and well, apart from this problem with familial cholesterol. The main pain is the price, $1,449!"

Inclisiran for High Cholesterol "After taking the first shot, I developed great fatigue, which worsened after each additional shot. I was diagnosed with a heart condition by the name of bigeminy. The office that administered the shot was greatly offended that I questioned the shot possibly causing this condition. My heart doctor agreed this was the likely cause. I am 5 months past the third shot and taking no more…ever. The bigeminy is clearing up on its own, thankfully, given further evidence that it was caused by the shot. Planning on reporting it to the FDA when I find the information of where it needs to go."

Inclisiran for High Cholesterol, Familial Heterozygous "The side effects listed are about right. Had some periods of dizziness too. I have had bouts of big-time fatigue, and I think that is a result of the Leqvio. The side effects are aggravating, but in general, are worth it for the results."
