http://www.medications.com/effect/view/4202 I am a 32 year old male who has been on Lipitor for about four years. High cholesterol runs in the family, and recently went up to 40mg. I think this was a big mistake. I have experienced some nasty side effects including chest pain, upset stomach, and Tue, 04 Sep 2007 14:02:29 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/4202?item=1581 if you are still having side effects to Lipitor, coq-10 can help. Available at super markets, health food stores etc... but cheapest on-line. I was told 300mg a day but had to go up to 900 mg a day and the symptoms started to lesson in 3 days and were GONE http://www.medications.com/effect/view/4202?item=1581
