ABSTRACT
One case of bezafibrate-induced myopathy was experienced and presente with a brief review of literatures. A 80-year-old woman with diabetes mellitus developed generalized myalgia and chest tightness 2 days before admission. The patient was treated with bezafibrate (800mg/day) for the previous 3 months. Serum creatine kinase, LDH and AST were markedly increased. Muscle biopsy revealed type 2 fiber atrophy. Withdrawal of the drug under the impression of bezafibrate-induced myopathy was followed by rapid clinical improvement.
