Lipitor causing memory loss?
The Australian Adverse Drug Reactions Advisory Committee has received 52 reports of amnesia from patients taking the cholesterol-fighting drug Lipitor – 32 in the past year-and-a-half. In New York, two lawsuits were recently launched against Pfizer, Lipitor’s maker, by plaintiffs claiming a range of side-effects, including memory loss. Pfizer is fighting the claims, which it says have no scientific basis.
