The pullout comes in the wake of increasing reports of side effects involving muscular weakness (rhabdomyolysis), especially in patients who have been treated concurrently with the active substance gemfibrozil despite a contraindication and warnings contained in the product information. 


Japan is unaffected by this move because gemfibrozil is not available there.
