Can statins cause joint pain?

Yes, statins have been associated with muscle and joint pain. You could apply Atrogel, increase your magnesium intake and drink more plain water to see if that improves the symptoms. If the problem persists, I recommend making an appointment with your doctor. I'm sure you'll know this anyway, but it is important that you continue to take the medication prescribed to you, even if it is contributing to new symptoms. However, your prescription may need to be revised if its causing problematic symptoms and only your doctor can advise on this.
