Can lipitor cause any nighttime side effects?



Lipitor, which contains atorvastatin, is a medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the body [1]. According to the Mayo Clinic [2], some common side effects of Lipitor include headache, diarrhea, joint pain, and muscle pain. However, both the Mayo Clinic and AARP [3] note that Lipitor can cause insomnia or other sleep disturbances as a less common side effect. It is important to speak with a healthcare provider if you experience any side effects while taking Lipitor.
