Lipitor (atorvastatin) and ACE inhibitors are two commonly prescribed medications that can have side effects. Lipitor is a medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood, while ACE inhibitors are used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure.

The most common side effects of Lipitor are muscle pain, weakness, and tenderness [1]. In rare cases, Lipitor can cause serious side effects such as liver problems, muscle breakdown, and an increased risk of diabetes [1]. It is important to speak with a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms while taking Lipitor.

ACE inhibitors can cause a range of side effects, including dizziness, fatigue, headaches, and a persistent cough [2]. These side effects are generally mild and go away once the body adjusts to the medication [2]. However, in rare cases, ACE inhibitors can cause more serious side effects such as kidney problems, high potassium levels, and a severe allergic reaction [2]. It is important to speak with a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms while taking an ACE inhibitor.

In conclusion, while Lipitor and ACE inhibitors are effective medications for treating high cholesterol and high blood pressure respectively, they can have side effects. It is important to speak with a doctor if you experience any symptoms while taking these medications, as some side effects can be serious.
