nancylebovLipitor, Thief of Memory is by Duane Graveline, an ex-astronaut and doctor, who found that Lipitor was giving him transient global amnesia.
The short version is that he's found Lipitor to be a very dangerous, useless drug, and cholesterol to be a crucial part of human metabolism.
This isn't something I've studied, but Graveline and those who've commented favorably on his book at amazon don't seem to be crackpots. The widespread prescription of a drug in the hopes of lowering one factor without concern for general health strikes me as consistent with how medicine is generally practiced.
