A member asked:
I just started taking lipitor (atorvastatin) last week (10 mg every other day) now i am starting to see bumps on my hands. is this a (temporary) side effect?

Not sure: If it is an allergy, or reaction, it should resolve with stopping the medication (check w/ your pop about stopping). Typically a drug allergy is a more diffuse reaction. This may be something else, but would stop the Lipitor (atorvastatin) first. Good luck.
