Avatar n tn I am 25 male and been on lipitor 20mg for almost 2 months. No side effects.
Avatar n tn Have been taking them for 2 1/2 years after stent implantation. Any ideas on how long you should be left on each of these..or are they classified as 'health maintenance'. No real side effects to speak of.
1583640 tn?1296674030 s a deficiency, a simple blood test would be good confirmation. Personally, do I think it would take 10+ years to see side effects from a medication? hmmm, I doubt it (my personal opinion).
10996785 tn?1432812977 No one told me about lipitor side effects. I literally felt like my body was freezing up. When I Googled it, they referenced ALS like symptoms. This really blew my mind. (spill the wine). They say it may take a month or longer to feel a little bit better. The blood work being ok is a big thing all of a sudden. I have a low grade side effect. I'm weaning off trazodone now, next neurontin, then nortripyline. Maybe. Better days ahead. Maybe...
519736 tn?1253986826 I have no knowledge of these medications, but did look up side effects of statins. If it does happen to be a side effect, how long should he wait to see if this pain resolves itself after stopping the lipitor....any help is appreciated.
Avatar m tn I stopped Crestor for 33 days. my lipids were: TC 139 HDL 35 TRG 126 LDL/HDL 2.3 GLU 88 Now they are: TC 211 HDL 29 TRG 164 LDL/HDL 5 GLU 96 I did not relax my strict Mediterrean diet nor hard daily exercise. Now I take the side of statins in the on-going controversy on whether they do any good or not.

Avatar m tn Thanks for the information, see the problem is that I have tried so many hbp meds and they give me really bad side effects, they have tested my liver function and kidney function and they are fine. I've had 24hour urine done a bunch of times and been tested for every and anything. My Gp has diagnosed me with primary hypertension(I guess genetic-I'm 5"10" 183lb.) all of the bp meds give me bad side effects.
Avatar n tn I have been taking Lipitor for the last 10 years and lately I have developed muscle pains. I was told the pain might be because of the Lipitor. I stopped taking them for a couple of months, the pain was much less however my cloestrol level was back to 290. I would appreciate any insight or suggestions.
