Lipitor Causes Migraines?

Hello! My husband (who’s a migraine sufferer — I am, too), started on Lipitor a few weeks ago & has had a migraine for 21 days!!! Have any of you had a similar reaction?? He’s been examined by some specialists, who have discounted the Lipitor connection (though they have ascribed no other causes). He’s otherwise totally healthy. Any thoughts appreciated.

Thank you!

  1. I started Lipitor and immediately was plaqued with muscle spasms in my legs, and an intense, clustered headache that persisted. I will not say “migraines”, as my imitrex and pain meds did not stop the pain. After 5 days I stopped the Lipitor and the headache subsided in 2 to 3 days.

  2. I take Lipitor, I have found no relation to migraines.
