I totally understand your concerns about your husband's health.
According to the history, there are no contraindications for your husband to take
Lipitor, however the following points should be taken into consideration:
1- Lipitor does not cause and does not exacerbate
constipation, on the contrary it might loosen his stools. However it might cause
abdominal pain in less than 2% of patients
2-
Fatigue was noted in less than 2% of patients who are on lipitor as a side effect which is a rare. However limb pain and joint pain is more common (10 to 15% of patients on lipitor)
3- Lipitor can cause
dizziness in less than 2 % of patients which is also rare.
As a summary, the risks and side effects of taking this medication, like any other medication, are present, however the benefit of this treatment is very important to your husband's health essentially for cardiovascular and dyslipidemic disorders.
I would recommend your husband to take Lipitor, and monitor the side effects, if he cannot tolerate the medication, then you might consider other medications.
