Question : Can Lipitor cause severe toe pain?

Answered by Dr. Saurabh Gupta (47 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
May cause generalised pain

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.

Lipitor may cause generalised pain or spasm (any where in the body, including legs, shoulders, back, arms or neck).

And one more thing…no one should stop a statin without consulting the prescriber.
