But Crestor lawsuits claim it has also been linked to serious and potentially life-threatening cardiovascular side effects. Rhabdomyolysis is another serious concern. Rhabdomyolysis occurs when a large number of skeletal muscle cells die, leading to a flood of muscle protein in the blood. A massive amount of muscle protein is released into the bloodstream when the muscle cells die. This muscle protein overwhelms the blood stream and can get trapped in the patient's kidneys.
