There's no good evidence that statins cause or trigger ALS , also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. However, there have been reports of people who have developed ALS while taking statins. Other studies have shown a decreased risk of ALS in people who take statins.

These medicines for high cholesterol can cause muscle injury in some people. But can they also trigger amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS?
