The authors also reported that these patients may show both neuropathic (24%) and myopathic (10%) electrodiagnostic changes. Our patient was diagnosed with subclinical hypothyroidism in August 2008. The condition was successfully controlled with oral levothyroxine 25<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mg/d, with normalization of TSH levels. Regarding the possible relationship between the increased CK levels in our patient and the use of fibrates to treat hypertriglyceridemia, it should be noted that these levels had been elevated since 2005, when treatment was started with gemfibrozil (replaced by fenofibrate in 2008). Rhabdomyolysis due to fibrates typically presents between 36<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>hours and 6 months after ingestion of the drug, is most often caused by gemfibrozil, and can result in acute renal failure.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> Fortunately, there are few such cases, but slight elevations in CK are not uncommon in patients on gemfibrozil, especially when it is used in combination with statin therapy.</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We cannot, therefore, rule out the possibility that fibrate therapy might have contributed to our patient's persistently elevated CK levels. However, numerous factors suggest that these were more likely to have been related to her general condition, namely, the absence of signs or symptoms of muscle involvement or clinical weakness, the persistent elevation in CK levels despite the change in fibrate therapy and its temporary suspension, and finally the detection of myopathic changes by electromyography.</p></span>" "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "NotaPie" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "etiqueta" => "☆" "nota" => "<p class="elsevierStyleNotepara" id="npar0005">Please cite this article as: Llamas-Velasco M, et al.
