Yes, joint pain can be a sign of Lipitor use. Lipitor, a statin medication used to treat high cholesterol, has been associated with joint pain as a side effect [1]. This side effect is not experienced by everyone who takes Lipitor, but it is a known possible reaction to the drug.

The manufacturer of Lipitor, Pfizer, includes joint pain in the list of possible side effects for the medication [2]. The U.S. National Library of Medicine's MedlinePlus database also lists joint pain as a potential side effect of Lipitor [3].

It is important to note that joint pain can have many different causes, and it is not always a sign of a reaction to medication. If you are experiencing joint pain and are taking Lipitor or any other medication, it is a good idea to speak with your healthcare provider to determine the cause of the joint pain and to discuss any potential changes to your medication regimen [4].
