The late JC was also on a couple Lipitor was one he couldn't tolerate either...It's really hard to know what to actually take with all the warning on these meds, plus I know the doctors really aren't reading up on each one, they take the word of the drug rep who calls on them. You really do need to Google up whatever new stuff is prescribed and also see that it doesn't interact with whatever else you are taking. Some one has to be accountable and unfortunately it is you.
