Q: Where can I buy Lipitor?

A: Try buying from www.abconlinepharmacy.com

Q: Doctor has switched me from 10 mg Lipitor to Simvastatin 40 mg?
I understand this is because the local trusts can buy simvastatin cheaper then Lipitor. I had been taking Lipitor 10 mg for 4 years and it did lower my cholesterol. I am wondering why I am having to take 40 mg of Simvastatin ….is that the equivalent of 10 mg of lipitor? My husband takes Simvastatin 20 mg and it works ok for him.

A: A 40 mg of Simvastatin has the comparable effect of 10mg of Lipitor and yes,it’s cheaper.

Many doctors have come to see simvastatin as a viable substitute for Lipitor. Studies show that at commonly prescribed doses Lipitor and simvastatin are equally effective at reducing LDL cholesterol, the so-called bad cholesterol.

A big difference is that Lipitor costs $2.50 to $3 a day, while simvastatin sells for 75 cents to $1 a day at most retail pharmacies, and as little as 10 cents a day at discount pharmacies like Costco’s.

Each month, doctors with patients on Lipitor are switching tens of thousands of them to simvastatin.

Q: Lipitor 40mg medication can it be broken in half?
now lipitor comes in 20mg and 40mg tablets. me and my my mother both have high cholesterol and both are on the lipitor tablet. i am on the 40mg while mum is on the 20mg i have 2 prescription from the dr for lipitor 40mg (cause each time i go i get one just incase i don’t go back for a little while). when i buy it i give one pack of the 40mg and give it to my mum, but because she is on the 20mg she just breaks it in half and takes it. in effectiveness this actually saves money too cause she can go for 2 months rather than only 1 month using this technique.
does anyone know if this tablet can be split and if split does it lose its effectiveness. the tablet doesn’t have a break line so normally you can’t break them, but according to website http://aids.about.com/od/generalinformation/a/splitting.htm you can. its not a different generic tablet it is the actual lipitor 40mg.

A: That should be fine. You can always ask your pharmacist these questions as well.

Q: Does anyone take Lipitor for cholesterol? Side effects?
I recently began taking Lipitor for high cholesterol and my blood pressure has gotten much higher. It has always been 120/80…always. The last 3 times I was at the doctor’s (during the last 6 weeks) it was in the nieghborhood of 140/100 and the doc recommended that I buy a home blood pressure kit. I’ve been taking it daily and it’s still high – 140-150/ 90-110. The doctor doesn’t want to see me until after the new year. Could it be the Lipitor? Or could it be stress?
Jake: I don’t like to take drugs, at all. And I never have until now. I’d prefer not to, believe me. I have a family history of high bad cholesterol and low good cholesterol, and have done the non-medication route for over a year, trying to lower my levels. I’ve gone vegan, I’ve always been a runner (I’m almost 49 and run 2 miles every day—have for over 20 years), and it hasn’t worked. The doctor told me I am a stroke/heart attack candidate, and that’s why I have chosen the meds. I do agree with you, I guess I should have given more history. I do thank you.
Jake – I did NOT thumbs down you……..If someone takes the time to answer my questions, I never ever ever give thumbs down.

A: my father takes lipitor and i help manage his meds. there is nothing noted that says it causes high blood pressure on the paper that comes with his medicine. it says it can cause muscle pain and weakness, and nausea/diarrhea.

stress can cause your blood pressure to go up, i do know that. we all have stress, but it is important to be able to handle it. some people use yoga, prayer, meditation, or things like that. i use physical labor – cleaning out closets, running, weeding the garden, etc. i also heard that holding a purring cat lowers your blood pressuer.

call the doctor’s office and ask to speak to a nurse, then tell her/him what your blood pressure has been. they may want to see you sooner.

Q: If Pravachol or Lipitor aren’t working….?
will natural remedies have any effect of cholesterol? My Husband has been on both and his readings are sky high. 445 HDL and 11 LDL– total 214. He works out, eats pretty well, no fast food, not over weight and am trying to figure out what to get naturally for him until we see the doctor again. I did buy flaxseed oil and garlic to start and am going to get the other things I have seen that are supposed to lower the numbers but if the prescriptions don’t work is ANYTHING going to work?
He has been on these for YEARS!!! I wasn’t worried too much about the 214 as much as the 445 and 11 numbers-they seem very lopsided. Thanks for your answer.

A: Pravachol (pravastatin sodium) and Lipitor (atorvastatin calcium) are very effective medications, but remember they’re just pills, don’t wait a miracle. He has to use them regularly for a couple of months. They will decrease and regulate the blood lipid levels. If they don’t, talk to your doctor there are some similar mediacations like them, he/she may change them. 214mg/dl cholesterol is not a very high level, in fact according to some laboratories normal values are 120-240mg/dl.
Just wait and don’t panic. Those pills will help.
Of course a healthy diet is important, but don’t use some plants instead of medications, just keep your doctor’s advices; and don’t bore him too much.

Q: Pfizer lipitor atorvastatin?
what is it? where can i buy this???

A: Lipitor is one of the infamous statin drugs which causes the body to unnaturally produce less cholesterol (both bad cholesterol and the good cholesterol essential for optimum health). The whole cholesterol thing is mostly a myth created to market statin drugs, While no studies have shown that statin drugs prevent heart disease, over 900 have found statin drugs to be dangerous. In the Lipitor TV ads, a small banner popped up which says “Lipitor has not been shown to prevent heart disease … ” Isn’t that what people expect when taking the drug? In 2005, Lipitor ads no longer mentioned heart disease, it simply ‘treats’ (bad) cholesterol, a concept created by the drug and food industry.

From drugs.com:

In rare cases, Lipitor can cause a condition that results in the breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue. This condition can lead to kidney failure. Call your doctor at once if you have unexplained muscle pain or tenderness, muscle weakness, fever or flu symptoms, and dark colored urine.

This medication can cause birth defects in an unborn baby. Do not use if you are pregnant. Use an effective form of birth control, and tell your doctor if you become pregnant during treatment. Do not take Lipitor if you are pregnant or breast-feeding, or if you have liver disease.

Before taking Lipitor, tell your doctor if you have diabetes, underactive thyroid, kidney disease, a muscle disorder, or a history of liver disease.

Avoid eating foods that are high in fat or cholesterol. Lipitor will not be as effective in lowering your cholesterol if you do not follow a cholesterol-lowering diet plan.

Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Lipitor. Alcohol can raise triglyceride levels, and may also damage your liver while you are taking Lipitor.

There may be other drugs that can interact with Lipitor. Tell your doctor about all the prescription and over-the-counter medications you use. This includes vitamins, minerals, herbal products, and drugs prescribed by other doctors. Do not start using a new medication without telling your doctor.

Before taking Lipitor

Before taking Lipitor, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have:

diabetes;

underactive thyroid;

kidney disease;
a history of liver disease; or
a muscle disorder.

Most people can lower bad cholesterol without suppressing good cholesterol through diet, exercise and supplements such as:

* Sure gel apple or grapefruit pectin (jam & jelly stiffener). Take one heaping teaspoon in a cup of hot water nightly before bed. Two acids in the Sure gel help dissolve cholesterol deposits in the blood vessels. In about a month or less, the bad cholesterol should be much lower, and as a side affect, any heavy metals (generally, industrial toxins) should be flushed from your system. Sure gel Grapefruit pectin is 100 times stronger, but tastes awful and oxidizes and interferes with many medications.

* Vinegar, apple juice and white grape juice. Mix 1 to 2 cup of apple cider vinegar, four cups of apple juice and three cups of white grape juice. Drink six ounces every day before breakfast. Used very effectively by Pennsylvania Amish families.

* Garlic. Is cholesterol’s natural enemy. Eat three cloves daily to lower blood pressure, build immune system and guard against cancer.

* Pomegranate juice. New studies indicate that pomegranate juice not only appears to prevent hardening of the arteries by reducing blood vessel damage, but the antioxidant-rich juice may also reverse the progression of this disease.

* Green Tea. Drink one or more glasses a day. Powerful antioxidant and anti-cancer properties too.

* Turmeric. Found in curry seasoning and plain yellow mustard. Lowers cholesterol, helps guard against Alzheimer’s and may help protect smokers from cancer.

* Walnuts. Eat a half cup of walnuts every day. Almonds are also good.

* Oatmeal. Eat a bowl of oatmeal every day for breakfast. Top with walnuts or almond bits and blueberries.

* Cinnamon, water and honey. Take 10 pieces of cinnamon sticks (one inch each). Powder and then boil in five teacups of water. Add a teaspoon of honey and have a hot cup of this mixture every day. From India.

* Onion juice reduces cholesterol and works as a tonic for nervous system. It cleans blood, helps digestive system, cures insomnia and regulates the heart action & helps in lowering cholesterol.

* Sunflower seeds contain a substantial amount of linoleic acid which is helpful in reducing cholesterol deposits on the walls of the arteries. Substituting oil of sunflower seeds for some of the solid fats like butter & cream will, therefore lead to a great improvement in health & lower cholesterol.

* Other good foods to help lower cholesterol: Flaxseeds, soy (due to concerns about unfermented soy products increasing the risk for certain cancers, use only fermented soy products such as miso and tempeh), lentils, beans, salmon, avocado, spinach and other dark green leafy vegetables, margarine with no trans-fats or hydrogenated ingredients, other nuts, dark chocolate, whole wheat and other grains.

* Omega 3 oils such as fish, borage and flax oil. Lower bad cholesterol and raise the good cholesterol levels.

Diet and exercise. Essential to help combat high cholesterol. Eat more vegetables and fruit and less meat and fatty foods. Find a way to be physically active each day, if only for a brisk walk, bike ride or 15-30 minute light workout.

Q: How simvastatin tastes?
I was on statin medications (Lipitor, pravastatin) for a few years.
Both of these drugs had a strong bitter taste when swallowed.
Now my doctor switched me to simvastatin which has no taste at all.
I am buying this simvastatin from a Canadian pharmacy and I am worried it
might be a fake. Anyone out there has this experience?

A: Both drugs are in tablet form. Lipitor has this bitter taste because of its active ingredient Calcium Atovastatin, Simvastatin on the other hand does not leave a particular aftertaste. Buying medications online is really risky and one cannot tell if it’s a fake or not.

Q: desperately trying to have a baby?
I am 38 year old,and am trying to have a baby with last year. I bought a clearblue fertilty montor and have been using it with the last 2 months .i find it good and i usually gets 2 peak fertilty days and a another 4 high fertilty days.I am wondering if my age is again me.my husband is 41 and also a diabetic who is taking medication such as nu seal asprin and lipitor and glucophage .we have 1 child when i was 35 and my husband did not have diabetis at that time.I am twelve and half stone now and was that weight when i conived my first child.

A: Hello there. Don’t worry about your age, it’s only been two months. I know it’s hard to be patient. I was 36 when we conceived our #1 and it only took 3 months. We conceived #2 after only 1 month (and I was 38). We’ve just now started trying for #3. I hope our story gives you hope.

Your husband’s condition should have no bearing on your ability to conceive. Good luck honey.

Q: can i go from one drug to another?
I take Lipitor and with my new insurance i cant afford to buy it so my doctor switch me to simvastatin generic for zocor does zocor do the same and will it bother me since i been on lipitor for a couple of years my doctor just changed it

A: They are basically the same and you can switch from one to another without interruption. You should have no problems with the switch.

Q: What are my options for getting a cardiovascular exam and treatment and how much do you think it will cost?
I’m scared. I lost my job and wasn’t able to continue paying for COBRA after a few months. I really feel like I need to get my heart checked. I have familial high cholesterol. I’m only 30 years old. My total cholesterol was 370 (HDL was 60, which is good) about a year and a half ago. I took a fairly high dose of Lipitor for only a few months, and my total cholesterol went down to 188! I had lost about 15-20 lbs during this process, and I’m still at that weight.

So, it’s about a year later now, and I have a pretty good feeling that the cholesterol is back up….My diet is generally better now than it was then, and I’ve started doing cardio on the eliptical machine, but it’s only been a couple weeks. So far, so good.

I check my blood pressure regularly, and it seems to be OK most of the time. The highest I’ve seen my systolic is 140, but this is only once in a while. It’s usually between 115 and 130. My diastolic is usually pretty low. I think the highest I’ve measured it at was like 83. It’s frequently in the 70’s and I’ve even seen it dip below 70, but this isn’t the norm.

My pulse is always high. I’d say that the lowest it goes is into the low 80’s, but I’ve only observed that a few times. Typically, it’s between 90-100. I think I’ve probably always had a fairly high standing pulse rate, so this might just be part of my physiology. We’ll see over the next few months if the cardio exercise lowers my pulse….I’m just wondering if my high pulse is correlated with my high cholesterol and/or plaque buildup. By the way, I also sweat easily, and I always have (along with the high pulse, this makes me wonder about thyroid issues, but I’ve had my thyroid checked before and it was “normal”).

My grandma on my dad’s side had a couple strokes. My dad has high cholesterol, which is treated with statin drugs. He never goes off them. He’s done a nuclear stress test, and everythings checked out for him, so hopefully that’s a good sign for me. Other than my dad’s mom, I don’t think anyone in my immediate family has had cardiac issues. My mom’s cousin had a heart attack.

I guess I never realized how good I had it when I had insurance….Even if I could afford to buy an “individual” plan, I doubt it would cover things like this.

Basically, I’m stuck. I’m trying to figure out the cheapest way to pay for all of this out of pocket, if that’s even possible. There’s no way I could afford to see a cardiologist. If I get a checkup with a GP, it’ll be a couple hundred for that + the lab tests (I have no idea how much these cost) + the drugs + follow up visits.

The drugs might be the most expensive part, however, I may qualify for patient assistance. I guess Pfizer is offering free Lipitor for the jobless.

So basically, I’m looking for suggestions and opinions on the best way to go about getting treatment, and I’d like your estimates as to how much I can expect to pay for all of this. I am a person of little means right now. Thanks!
Edit:
I said that my total cholesterol was 188 avter treatment with Lipitor….I found where I had written down the results, exactly, and here they are:

Total Cholesterol: 177
LDL: 121
HDL: 41 (went down from 60, which is bad)
Triglycerides: 74

Coronary Risk Factor: 4.3

A: In addition to statin drugs, try to reduce the cholesterol further by diet and exercise. This is necessary since you may be at higher risk due to a family history of high cholesterol.
Your blood pressure varies between 115-130/ 70-83 mmHg. Your pulse pressure exceeds 40 mmHg.(Systolic BP– Diastolic BP). This is bad for the heart.
Hence you should undergo Echocardiography stress test.
Atorvastatin (generic name) Lipitor (brand name) is used along with diet, exercise, and weight-loss to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke and to decrease the chance that heart surgery will be needed in people who have heart disease or who are at risk of developing heart disease. Atorvastatin is also used to decrease the amount of cholesterol (a fat-like substance) and other fatty substances in the blood. This will decrease the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other heart diseases because when there are high levels of cholesterol and other fats in the blood, these substances may build up along the walls of the blood vessels and decrease or block blood flow to the heart. Atorvastatin is in a class of medications called HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins). It works by slowing the production of cholesterol in the body.
Please note that I am not a medical professional.

Q: Benefits of Phytosterols, Niacin, and Co-enzyme CQ10?
I am excited now. I had gone to the doctor who wanted to put me on statins. I am no friend of Lipitor or whatever because of the horrible side effects those drugs have. So I went and bought me Co-enzyme CQ10,odor less garlic,vitamin C, Phytosterols, and Niacin. I was pretty skeptical–I had a cholesterol value of 278, a slight heart problem, and my HDL cholesterol was only 32. I faithfully took those supplements, and now I am excited. MY cholesterol is down to 196, my HDL is up to 48(I still need 2 more points to be ok), my triglycerides are normal, my blood pressure has gone down to 110/68—all this with natural stuff. As my doctor told me the Co-enzyme CQ10 is known to protect the heart. So why don’t more people get supplements instead of drugs? The Phytosterols in particular work better than statins because my cholesterol levels had gone down by 72 points in 10 weeks. And except for the phytosterols can you buy everything else cheap at walmart–is it because insurance companies don’t pay for supplements or what? Why do so many people keep on taking these drugs and damage their bodies rather than trying supplements?
I forgot to mention that I got me also flush free niacin which raises the good cholesterol(HDL)

A: Congratulations on your success. Unfortunately your regimen, like one with statins doesn’t always work for everybody.

Statins, like ALL medications (natural or not), have side effects. Most patients do fine.

Besides lowering cholesterol, statins also seem to reduce inflammation within blood vessels, which also seems to play a role in heart disease.

Again, congratulations.

Q: What does Acetyl L-Carnitine taste like?
I bought capsules on eBay and the powder in caps taste tart & sugary. I worry they might be fake. I’m taking them in hopes of countering leg pain from side effects of Lipitor.

A: I may not can say what it taste like but I can tell you that after I take it in a capsule form with lipolic acid combined in it it gives me a terrible burning sensation like acid reflux . I certainly can understand why there is reason for concern. It makes one wonder if it is a sugar pill. I do not remember it ever having a sweet tart taste when I was taking it alone in a capsule.

Q: Is this the ‘grim truth’ of American life?
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article25166.htm
“Because your lifestyle is almost designed to make you sick.
Let’s start with your diet: Much of the beef you eat has been exposed to fecal matter in processing. Your chicken is contaminated with salmonella. Your stock animals and poultry are pumped full of growth hormones and antibiotics. In most other countries, the government would act to protect consumers from this sort of thing; in the United States, the government is bought off by industry to prevent any effective regulations or inspections.

In a few years, the majority of all the produce for sale in the United States will be from genetically modified crops, thanks to the cozy relationship between Monsanto Corporation and the United States government. Worse still, due to the vast quantities of high-fructose corn syrup Americans consume, fully one-third of children born in the United States today will be diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes at some point in their lives.

Of course, it’s not just the food that’s killing you, it’s the drugs. If you show any sign of life when you’re young, they’ll put you on Ritalin. Then, when you get old enough to take a good look around, you’ll get depressed, so they’ll give you Prozac. If you’re a man, this will render you chemically impotent, so you’ll need Viagra to get it up. Meanwhile, your steady diet of trans-fat-laden food is guaranteed to give you high cholesterol, so you’ll get a prescription for Lipitor, (then loose your memory as a side-effect). Finally, at the end of the day, you’ll lay awake at night worrying about losing your health plan, so you’ll need Lunesta to go to sleep.

With a diet guaranteed to make you sick and a health system designed to make sure you stay that way, what you really need is a long vacation somewhere. Unfortunately, you probably can’t take one. I’ll let you in on little secret: if you go to the beaches of Thailand, the mountains of Nepal, or the coral reefs of Australia, you’ll probably be the only American in sight. And you’ll be surrounded crowds of happy Germans, French, Italians, Israelis, Scandinavians and wealthy Asians. Why? Because they’re paid well enough to afford to visit these places AND they can take vacations long enough to do so. Even if you could scrape together enough money to go to one of these incredible places, by the time you recovered from your jetlag, it would time to get on a plane and rush back to your job.”

This American writer has hit the nail on the head….his article is full of precise observations of American culture.

Sometimes the truth hurts.

A: You make a very good point and you are obviously well informed.

But, I think you’ve posted this in the wrong section. This would be better in the section on Health of Society in general. Not being funny. You need to repost it in a more appropriate section. I’m sure many would be interested in reading this. Thanks for the read.

Q: Do you/have you bought products based upon celebrity endorsements…i.e., Oprah Winfrey, Derek Jeter, etc.?
Should endorsements by celebrities be regulated?

Pfizer Pulls Cholesterol Ad with Dr. Jarvik

WASHINGTON — Pfizer Inc said on Monday it was voluntarily withdrawing advertising for its Lipitor cholesterol drug featuring Dr. Robert Jarvik, inventor of the Jarvik artificial heart, because its ads led to “misimpressions.”

The ads involving Jarvik had come under scrutiny following an msnbc.com column written by NBC’s Robert Bazell in March 2007. The column recounted Jarvik’s past failures and pointed out that while he earned a medical degree, he didn’t take an internship or practice medicine.

In January, the Committee on Energy and Commerce of the U.S. House of Representative began investigating celebrity endorsements of prescription medicines.

Democratic lawmakers had voiced concern that Jarvik’s qualifications were misrepresented in widely seen television commercials touting the blockbuster drug. They said he seemed to be dispensing medical advice even though he is not a practicing physician.

On his Web site, Jarvik describes himself as a medical scientist who has worked in the field of artificial hearts for 36 years and does not practice clinical medicine or treat individual patients.

“The way in which we presented Dr. Jarvik in these ads has, unfortunately, led to misimpressions and distractions from our primary goal of encouraging patient and physician dialogue on the leading cause of death in the world — cardiovascular disease. We regret this,” Ian Read, Pfizer’s president of worldwide pharmaceutical operations, said in a statement.

“Going forward, we commit to ensuring there is greater clarity in our advertising regarding the presentation of spokespeople,” Read said.

A: I have purchased Derek Jeter Cologne

A: as you are over 35 and have been trying for more than 6 months you can go to a doctor and get them to do fertility tests, they may find nothing wrong and you will just have to keep trying, but they may be able to help you along a little. in the mean time make sure you and your husband follow healthy diets, try to get a bit of exercise too if you dont already, give up smoking and alcohol if applicable, he can stick with caffine but you should try to give it a miss, get some prenatal vits so when you do get pregnant you have all the vits and minerals in your system, and get some zinc in your man, it helps his sperm. above all, i know its easier said than done (struggling with this part myself!) try to relax about it, make sex fun and not just a way to make a baby.
good luck.
