my boyfriend is 49 and has had high cholesterol for about 10 years. his doctor put him on lipitor. he took it twice and could hardly stay awake. also noticed pains in his legs and weakness in his knees after the first dose. he has stopped and will not resume this treatment. there must be a better alternative. don't do it! there are too many websites like these with pages and pages of similar complaints.

pains in his legs

pain in extremity

did reduce cholesterol but after 18 months suddenly developed muscle cramps and tendon pain everywhere - feet, knees, shins, thigh,hips, upper arms, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, tightened muscles in neck which aggravted spinal disc sysmptoms in areas where i have had problems in the past. in great acute pain doing most things. living hell. gave up lipitor for 5 weeks and symptoms rapidly improved. started taking again and day 1 had very severe cramps and pains again all over everwhere at once, these faded slightly so i thought i would try another - same very severe reaction. no question in my mind that it is the culprit.

this is the result of taking 1 pill a day for 12 days: on day 3, i felt stabbing pain above a knee. thought i had somehow injured it - but the pain vanished in a day. the next day, i felt stabbing pain in my spine and i thought i had thrown my back out. i was hunched over to the left and figured it would take a week to get better, but the pain vanished after a little more than a day. i started feeling an odd sensation in the center back of my calves. i put weight on suddenly for no reason and ringing in my left ear increased. next the calf sensation turned painful at night and started increasing. i figured out these issues all might be caused by lipitor and stopped taking it immediately. but the pain in my calves continued to get worse for several days! my legs were waking me up at night and were all contorted. i've never experienced anything like it but the nurse said,.

aches and pain in both arms and shoulders and weakness in arms, especially left arm. difficulty sleeping because of pain. noticed a decrease in sexual desire, but don't know if lipitor is to blame. seems like the cure is worse than the disease. i will discontinue using lipitor and see if the pain goes away.

temporary constipation relieved by fiber supplements, gone after about 6 weeks. possibly increased hair loss - (and i am female so it is really unfortunate) but thinning hair among women at my age also runs in my mothers family so can't really blame statins. i have a lipid problem that doesn't respond to diet or exercise. agressive cholesterol management is my only option. liptor works. i take 40mgs/day, may be able to lower it since my total cholesterol dropped from 300 to 120 in two months. my doctor put me on coq 10 at the same time as the lipitor, and explained possible side effects. lipitor actually reversed blockages in one of my brothers. 4 out of 5 of us are on statins - 3 lipitor. no serious bad effects. try coq 10 to prevent/reduce side effects.

i was on lipitor for 3 years with no problems. then i sated having hip/leg/foot pain and numbness. it finally go so bad that i could not sleep lying down. also, bouts of nausia. i went off the lipitor and within 3 days the pains were going away, 10 days and all was well. it is a great med as long as you don't have the side effects. my md says that it is soluble in fat and builds up in the muscle. he switched me to crestor, similar med, but water soluble so it doesn't build up in your body as much. so far so good.

hip pain

arthralgia

i was on lipitor for 3 years with no problems. then i sated having hip/leg/foot pain and numbness. it finally go so bad that i could not sleep lying down. also, bouts of nausia. i went off the lipitor and within 3 days the pains were going away, 10 days and all was well. it is a great med as long as you don't have the side effects. my md says that it is soluble in fat and builds up in the muscle. he switched me to crestor, similar med, but water soluble so it doesn't build up in your body as much. so far so good.

on 10 mg. didnt seem to have any side effects and my cholestrol went from 256 to 190 in 30 days-i was amazed but then after another month my cholestrol went back up to 235 and my doctor decided to bump up my dose to 20 mg. thats when the severe muscle pain started and very debillitating-i went to a rheumotogologist thinking it was lupus or fibromalgyia as i felt like i always had the flu and she took a blood test and said i had muscle damage from the lipitor. do the benefits outweigh the severe side effects-pfizer says it's rare but serious side effects-i know many people that have had the same problem with muscle damage so i would not consider the side effect to be rare and now since i'm off the drug wonder how much permanent damage to my muscles is their due to this awful drug.

liver enzymes became elevated after taking the cholesterol-lowering medicines (mevacor and lipitor) for approximately 9 years. the lipitor was great at lowering my cholesterol and improving the ratio of my hdl's to ldl's; however, on the advice of my doctor i have discontinued taking lipitor for the time being. i didn't realize that i haven't been feeling well, until i stopped taking the lipitor and now feel like my old self again. it's hard to explain, but i have a better sense of well-being and i've actually lost a few pounds even though i have not changed my diet. i feel less bloated, and my stomach feels more comfortable.

bloated

abdominal distension

incredible depression almost immediately after i started taking it. crying all the time, not sleeping, reliving of past terrible events that had occurred in my life, like someone pushing a doorbell and holding it to keep ringing and reliving all the terrible negative things in my life over and over again. i kept asking my doctor if there were any side effects like mine and he said no. i had been taking zocor with no problem but insurance company wouldn't pay for it anymore and made me go on lipitor. after about six months i had my docteor write a letter to ins. co. saying i couldn't take lipitor and they agreed to put me back on zocor. but the long term effect of those six months sent me into a psyhcological tailspin that i never recovered from. i went to three psychiatrist and they finally came up with a diagnoses of bipolar disorder. cause unknown. this was three years ago. the drug ruined my life, i am now seperated after this all occurred and before the lipitor i was an energtic happy family man with a great wife and two kids. i know it was the lipitor because the only other medication i take is an aspirin once a day.
