   Curious if anyone here has ever taken the Heart injection " Repatha.". If so, were there any side effects.

Thanks to all,

Rcristal

Repatha is a relatively new drug to help with Heart artery blockage.  The patient self injects the medicine twice per month.  It actually lowers LDL very quickly.  It works well for many.  My Liver enzymes suddenly started to rise when I started on this drug.  Coincidence?  No Doctor knows.  I have gone off of it and continue to have my blood monitored.

I doubt it's a coincidence. Keep us posted on how you are doing.

 I fully agree.  And I certainly hope the drug caused it.  I am being closely monitored and will keep you posted.

Thanks,
