This not only suggests that relapsing/remitting MS patients should be carefully monitored while taking simvastatin (if they should be taking it at all in the first place), but that long-term treatment with simvastatin could have profound effects on the CNS. This should definitely temper the enthusiasm expressed by the American Academy of Pediatrics last year for giving statins to children as young as eight years old.
