Lipitor is a brand name for atorvastatin, a medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood [1]. According to AARP, medications that can cause insomnia include some cholesterol-lowering drugs, such as atorvastatin [2]. However, the British Heart Foundation notes that there is limited evidence to suggest that statins like atorvastatin cause sleep disturbances [3]. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider if you experience any side effects while taking Lipitor or any other medication.
