As my Diabetic Group says YMMV - Your Mileage May Vary.

I have been on Lipitor for 6 years, and do not regret it for one minute. I have had absolutely no difficulties because of the drug. And it has done everything it promised. My Cholesterol is WNL (within normal limits), my HDL is up, LDL down and triglycerides the best they have been in 10 years. I'm also excited to hear that statins may delay the onset of dementia in later years; excited because both my mother and grandmother had senile dementia.

Everyone is different, and everyone will react differently to a particular medication. You need to consult with your own physician about problems that may, or may not, be drug-related.
