Question about Statins - Changed brands

All:

I recently changed brands from Lipitor to Lescol XL because I some side effects from the Lipitor (Jitters and dry eyes) I switched to Lescol XL (Equivilant dosage for effect).

I can't tell if I am having side effects from the Lescol or if it is just the result of the switch to a different drug.

Has anyone has a reaction to switching statins? Does it go away?

Yes - I spoke to the doctor who as usual said that I am sensative to drugs and I would get over it... I might just get over him quicker by getting a better doctor.

Anyway... please let me now if anyone has had a similar experience.

Thanks

Stew
