I'm sorry, but I cannot answer your question about how long you have been taking Lipitor and supplements as I do not have access to that information. However, I can provide some general information based on the sources you provided.

Lipitor is a brand name for the drug atorvastatin, which is a type of medication known as a statin. Statins are commonly prescribed to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. According to Drug Patent Watch [1], Lipitor was first approved by the FDA in 1996 and its patent expired in 2011. This means that generic versions of the drug are now available.

While statins can be effective in reducing cholesterol levels, they can also have side effects. The Mayo Clinic [2] notes that common side effects of statins include muscle pain and weakness, liver damage, and digestive problems. However, most people tolerate statins well and do not experience significant side effects.

If you are taking Lipitor or another statin, it is important to talk to your doctor before stopping the medication. UnityPoint Health [3] notes that stopping statins suddenly can cause a rapid increase in cholesterol levels and increase the risk of heart attack or stroke. Your doctor can help you weigh the benefits and risks of taking statins and determine the best course of treatment for your individual needs.
