Side Effects of Lipitol

After using Lipitol for a short period I could not walk due to severe limp pain, to the extent of using a walking-aid. When I discontinued it I received strength back to my limps.

I believe you're referring to Lipitor..that may be why you haven't gotten replies...depending on dosage and length of time on statin is what determines how long it takes for side effects to disappear...best of luck to you
