| Abstract: | ![]()
Many drugs can cause myopathies, and such myopathies may range widely from asymptomatic elevations in the serum creatine phosphokinase levels to severe myalgias, cramps, exercise intolerance, muscle weakness, and even rhabdomyolysis. In this article, some of the commonly used drugs that may induce myopathies, as well as the clinical phenotypes, diagnosis, and management of these syndromes are reviewed. |
