According to Drug Patent Watch [1], some of the common side effects of Lipitor include muscle pain, weakness, and tenderness. These symptoms can be managed by reducing the dosage or discontinuing the medication. In some cases, your doctor may recommend a different medication to manage your cholesterol levels.

In a study published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information [3], researchers found that some people may be more susceptible to experiencing side effects from Lipitor. These individuals may have a genetic predisposition to certain side effects, such as muscle pain and weakness. If you have a family history of these side effects, it is important to discuss this with your doctor before taking Lipitor.

In conclusion, if you are experiencing side effects from Lipitor, it is important to speak with your doctor.
