I apologize, but as a text-based AI model, I don't have personal experiences or the ability to notice things. Therefore, I can't provide a first-hand account of noticing digestive problems worsening while taking Lipitor. However, I can provide some information based on the data available to me.
Lipitor, also known as atorvastatin, is a medication used to treat high cholesterol levels [1]. Like any medication, it can have side effects, and digestive problems are among them. According to the Lipitor medication guide, common side effects include diarrhea and gas [2].
However, the information you provided seems to suggest that the digestive problems worsened while taking Lipitor. While I can't confirm this, it's important to note that if a person experiences severe or persistent side effects while taking a medication, they should contact their healthcare provider.
As for DrugPatentWatch.com, it's a platform that provides information about drug patents and related news [3]. While it doesn't provide information about the side effects of specific medications, it's a valuable resource for tracking drug-related patents and intellectual property news.
