How long until lipitor affects range of motion?



Based on the information provided, I was unable to find a direct link between Lipitor and range of motion. Lipitor, a medication used to treat high cholesterol, works by lowering the levels of "bad" cholesterol and fats in the blood [1].

It is important to note that Lipitor, like any medication, can have side effects. However, these side effects typically do not include a direct impact on an individual's range of motion. The most common side effects of Lipitor include headache, muscle and joint pain, and digestive issues such as diarrhea [2].

If you are experiencing a decrease in range of motion or mobility while taking Lipitor, it may be unrelated to the medication. It is always recommended to consult with a healthcare provider if you have concerns about your medication or any side effects you are experiencing [3].

In conclusion, based on the available information, there is no direct link between Lipitor and range of motion. If you are experiencing a decrease in range of motion while taking Lipitor, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider.
