How would you rate your energy levels on lipitor versus pre lipitor?



Without specific information about a particular individual's experience with Lipitor, it is not possible to provide a personalized comparison of energy levels. However, I can provide general information about Lipitor and its potential side effects.

Lipitor (atorvastatin) is a medication used to treat high cholesterol and reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack. It works by blocking a substance your body needs to make cholesterol [1].

Fatigue or weakness is not listed as a common side effect of Lipitor. The most common side effects of Lipitor include diarrhea, upset stomach, and muscle and joint pain [2]. However, it is important to note that everyone's response to medication is different, and some people may experience side effects not listed in the medication's official label.

If you have experienced changes in energy levels while taking Lipitor, it is important to speak with your healthcare provider. They can help determine whether the medication may be contributing to your symptoms and suggest alternative treatment options if necessary.

In conclusion, while Lipitor is not typically associated with changes in energy levels, individual experiences may vary. It is always important to communicate with your healthcare provider about any changes in your health or symptoms while taking medication.
