http://www.medications.com/effect/view/37352 I am a 50 year old woman and have been taking Lipitor for about the last 6 months. I have developed a severe case of eczema on my scalp as well as hair loss. Also I have been having pain in my hips. I never would have attributed my symptoms to Lipitor, but Wed, 17 Dec 2008 10:09:14 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/37352?item=15324 This dangerous drug can cause MANY side effects. I stopped taking it 10 mos. ago and still have side effects. There are natural products and alternatives to control your cholesterol . . . instead of take poison. http://www.medications.com/effect/view/37352?item=15324 Wed, 17 Dec 2008 13:34:42 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/37352?item=15329 Welcome to the club.

Has anyone else had a problem like this? http://www.medications.com/effect/view/37352?item=15333 Thu, 18 Dec 2008 09:36:05 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/37352?item=15353 I have heard the complaint before of skin problems associated with statin usage. Are you aware that although lipitor lowers cholesterol, lipitor has never been shown to prevent a cardiac event in females of any age group? http://www.medications.com/effect/view/37352?item=15353 Thu, 18 Dec 2008 10:25:09 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/37352?item=15354 I neither read nor heard of any side effects from statin drugs before. It just never really concerned me. And then the other day I read an article about Lipitor may cause dry skin. So I looked it up on the internet and found this web site.
