简要总结
Pretreating people with replacement doses of vitamin D will allow them to tolerate Statin medications that have caused muscle pain for them in the past.
详细描述
Patients who have been unable to tolerate statin medications due to muscle pain will be randomly assigned to receive vitamin D or placebo for 6 weeks before reintroducing their statin medication. The investigators will judge whether vitamin D in the manner administered in the study reduces the myalgia with statins and allows patients to remain on these important medications.
