Lipitor (atorvastatin): I am not aware of taking Lipitor (atorvastatin) for only three times a week instead of daily. I recommend to my patients to take Lipitor (atorvastatin) on a daily basis, especially this low dose of Lipitor (atorvastatin) as 10 mg.

Lipitor (atorvastatin) Side Effects: Yes, some patients are advised to try this approach when they have minor muscle aches or other symptoms on a daily dose of Lipitor (atorvastatin) or other statins.
