Lipitor (Atorvastatin Calcium)

[Deffine]

Retards. You dont reduce cholesterol to get healthy, you fucking eat better and live a more active lifestyle to reduce the inflammation in your veins which in turn is causing the high cholesterol. CHOLESTEROL ACTUALLY REPAIRS THE INFLAMMATION IN YOUR VEINS. YES, PLAQUE IN YOUR VEINS IS CAUSED BY TOO MUCH CHOLESTEROL BUILDING UP IN YOUR VEINS, BUT THIS IS CAUSED BY HIGH INFLAMMATION. FIX THE INFLAMMATION, NOT THE CHOLESTEROL. ONLY HIGH RISK PATIENTS OF STROKE SHOULD MAYBE USE THIS MEDICINE

Red Rice Yeast is a natural healthier alternative. Also workout and diet.. Only eat junk once a week.

I work in a pharmacy and I will tell you that people are becoming complacent about their health. They think that swallowing pills is the substitute for exercise and diet. The more people rely on drugs to "cure" all of their ailments the more md's and pharmaceutical companies will push them. Most people don't want something natural or over the counter recommendations. They want "the strong stuff" in the pharmacy. Watch the commercials, a lot of these drugs are causing other problems. Research!!!

My neurologist has just prescribed this for me

[sjtom57]

This dangerous drug is prescribed so often to so many for one reason and one reason only; it's making drug companies and doctors rich. There are numerous vitimin supplements that do just as well for a faction of the cost. One example is niacin. Do your own research folks and don't buy the bs from the docs.

[infert1l1ty]

More conflicting information. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[RealNaturalRemedies]

The physician population is beginning to take notice of natural medicines. Take a look at our Real Natural Remedies channel to see what Dr. Chaudhry has to say about the side effects of cholesterol drugs and natural ingredient medicines to help lower cholesterol.

I am quite sure Lipitor was first FDA approved in 1996 - not 1999 as stated in the beginning of this video. Visit the FDA website and search for the Orange Book Detailed Record on Lipitor.

[eBiology]

Why are there so many uneducated individuals commenting on Every single medication, claiming it's all money for the pharmaceutical companies? One person even claimed that Lipitor causes cancer and increases mortality rate by 58%, I mean are you kidding me? Some of you need to get an education and stop making stories up...

[jst1998]

When diet and excercise are not enough, add Lipitor and support the pharmaceutical industry. Corporate jets are not cheap. And why would you ever eat less or healthy or breath fresh air or move your butt. That's for people with a brain. So why would you do that???

[CinnamonWithATwist]

why was this on my "recommended for you" list?

[punjabilady]

hypercholesteremia is one of the most common genetically inherited disorder (Autosomal Dominant) .... sometimes exercise and diet alone is not enough.... and it is also a useful drug to bridge that extreme gap which cannot be done fast enough with diet and exercise.. after all changing a lifelong behaviour patter isn't that easy ...

[nald623]

The best way in lowering cholesterol:

1) Exercise everyday.

2) Eat a balance diet.

3) Have a positive outlook in life.

4) Meditate..

You DONT need any medicine.. dont believe in this commercial bullshit.. Do it the natural way.. and just discipline yourself to live longer...

Believe me, I am 38 and im healthy as a horse..

[twistertheman]

some times it must be treated by medications like diabetes type I , some kinds of diseases must be treated beside lifestyle modification and thanx for the tip. ;)

[gledalac1979]

@twistertheman

human brain is made of cholesterol so we need cholesterol. We need cholesterol to make vitamin D so artificially lowering it will make you more sick. Diabetes type 1 is caused by a lack of vitamin D and type 2 is caused by insulin resistance which is too much sugar so just remove carbohydrates

[thienan]

You're a douche

Lipitor reduces LDL (bad cholesterol) concentrations.

There are some patients whose cannot reduce blood cholesterol concentrations to a healthy levels through diet & exercise alone.

Diet & exercise may be great to lower cholesterol for some people like yourself but unfortunately there are patients with disabilities or hormone disorders that prevent them from effectively lowering cholesterol levels without the use of medicines.

Lipitor is actually a very important.medicine.

[vidgamer77]

@thienan

Sure, and how many of the millions of lipitor users actually have desperate medical conditions? I'm sure it's not many.

Just another abused medicine. Yes, it is positive and helpful to those in need, but I'd be pressed to say that the many people using this drug actually "need it".

[twistertheman]

@vidgamer77 and that's the right question that we need to ask " abusing medicine" that's the real concern here !!!

[SpartanChiro100]

@thienan what is a safe level? who decides that? Cholesterol is not the cause of heart disease it is merely a symptom. Tim Russert died of a heart attack even though his cholesterol levels were within normal range. Cholesterol drugs have damaged way more lives than they have actually helped.

LIPITORRRRRRRRRR

[CPTNZORX]

kraaaaaaaaap is dangerous....

How to rip people off....

[litebug12345]

I already have had some liver problems (fatty liver disease) & could not take something like Lipitor which has liver side effects. Sterolyn has done a wonderful job at lowering my LDL (down to 140 from 220 already!) without causing liver damage.

[twistertheman]

Nice to know that , i hope u are doing well now .

[kdwyermedia]

Actually, it just poisons people.

[jazyskowski]

Amazing, all natural, herbal extract imported by the Ministry of Health in China! Please view my important videos.

[ThoughtCriminal911]

Most medicines cause more harm than good. I understand that some need medicine, but the amount of people that really do need it is less than 1 in 100.

[aabsc]

Lipitor is well proven to increase heart attacks by 10% and increases death rate by 58% by not only causing heart attacks, but also causes cancer, alzheimers and other fatal illnesses. People taking Lipitor die sooner of it's side effects than they would have with no treatment at all. All independant studies have proiven this.

[Foundyourball]

Where are you getting your stats? Anybody can throw out numbers. If you want people to believe your outrageous claims reference them.

[aabsc]

The only outrageous claim is that pills of toxic chemicals made from petroleum that are being passed as medicine could possibly improve health. Almost all drugs accelerate death compared to even no treatment at all, especially for cancer, diabetes and heart disease. Look at any independent study, strangely, only the studies made by the manufacturer can find any benefits (and only those studies are used for approval, not independent unbiased studies).

[untitledtrack999]

Where are your references?

[gemsyjoe]

FUCK LIPITOR! FUCK DRUGS! Natural Medicin Works Lot Better!

[anthonygador]

You likely have no education in the matter. Natural medicine is a big money industry much like big pharma. Lifestyle changes often produce the most robust changes but to say drugs act inferiorly to natural products is simply ignorant and not in accordance to much of the clinical evidence available for you to read.

[aabsc]

Diet and exercise reduce heart attacks and cancer risks, Lipitor significantly increases both and increases mortality rate by 58% according to independant, unbiased studies. Only the manufacturer's own study has strangely not found these deadly side effects.

[ThoughtCriminal911]

Only the manufacturer's own study has strangely not found these deadly side effects.

Ofcourse , 'cos they only care about the profits and if they get caught they don't get penalized in any way.

Is cholesterol medication even necessary or is this yet another hoax. Maybe a minimal few with very high cholesterol.

[Foundyourball]

Though I appreciate the research that you've done into the matter. I would still like to see which independant study(ies) you've subscribed to. I have an open mind about this but I would prefer to read the facts for myself. "Any" independent study is to vague to make claims that medication promotes death.

[untitledtrack999]

aabc, Undoubtedly diet and exercise are the best way. Some need statins to get to healthy levels. My question is HOW do statins increase heart attacks? Please reference your claims. Many people here are making claims but don't reference.

[aabsc]

Statins cause heart attacks and cancer by cirectly causing a deficiency of Co Enzyme Q10, this is a needed nutrient for heart function and cancer prevention. Therefor Statins cause heart attacks and cancer by this well documented mecanism, research it it's well documented.

[untitledtrack999]

You seem to be well educated. Not like a doctor or someone who actually has a clue.

Pharm D and Nuclear trained that is impressive way to go
