他汀類藥物(statins)是常見的降血脂藥,其最嚴重的副作用是橫紋肌溶解症(rhabdomyolysis)。這是一種肌肉組織壞死的急性病症,壞死後的肌紅蛋白會釋放到血液中,若沉積在腎小管可能導致急性腎衰竭。因此,病人若出現不明原因的肌肉疼痛、觸痛或無力,必須立即回報醫療團隊進行血液檢查(如肌酸激酶 CK 值)。
Statin therapy carries a risk of rhabdomyolysis, a serious condition involving muscle breakdown that can lead to acute renal failure. Clients must be educated to report unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness immediately for prompt evaluation of creatine kinase levels.
