A 75-year-old male patient received regularly fluvastatin sodium 80 mg once daily after intracoronary stent implantation.The medication was changed to atorvastatin calcium 10 mg every night because his lipid levels could not reach the standard.On day 4,the patient's insomnia became worse than before,he was awake all night.Atorvastatin calcium was stopped and rosuvastatin calcium 10 mg every night was given.Three days later,his insomnia was relieved.
