Does lipitor cause sleep disturbances?

Can Lipitor affect sleep quality?

Lipitor (atorvastatin) is a statin used to lower cholesterol. Some patients report sleep disturbances while taking it, but clinical studies show mixed results. Large reviews find no consistent link between statins and insomnia or poor sleep.

What do clinical studies say?

A meta-analysis of statin trials found no significant difference in sleep disturbance rates between statin users and placebo groups. Large-scale observations from the UK Biobank and other databases also showed no association with insomnia.
