Abstract

Statin nocebo effects have been demonstrated in numerous randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled and active-controlled trials. Emerging evidence suggests that brain pathways might mediate statin nocebo hyperalgesia. Evidence-based pain-management approaches can be used to manage nocebo symptoms that occur during statin therapy.
