‘Talk about a

wake-up call.

I had a heart attack

at 57.”

John E.

Lafayette, CA

Heart attack: 8/16/2007

“I should have been doing more for my high cholesterol.

I learned the hard way. Now I trust my heart to Lipitor.”

Talk to your doctor about your risk and about Lipitor.

When diet and exercise are not enough, adding Lipitor may help. Lipitor is FDA-approved to reduce the

risk of heart attack and stroke in patients who have heart disease or risk factors for heart disease, including

family history of early heart disease, high blood pressure, low good cholesterol, age and smoking.

Lipitor has been extensively studied with over 18 years of research. And Lipitor is backed by over

400 ongoing or completed clinical studies.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:

LIPITOR is not for everyone. It is not for those with liver

problems. And it is not for women who are nursing,

pregnant or may become pregnant.

If you take LIPITOR, tell your doctor if you feel any new

muscle pain or weakness. This could be a sign of rare

but serious muscle side effects. Tell your doctor about

all medications you take. This may help avoid serious

drug interactions. Your doctor should do blood tests to

check your liver function before and during treatment

and may adjust your dose.

Common side effects are diarrhea, upset stomach,

muscle and joint pain, and changes in some blood tests.

INDICATION:

LIPITOR is a prescription medicine that is used along

with a low-fat diet. It lowers the LDL (“bad” cholesterol)

and triglycerides in your blood. It can raise your HDL

(“good” cholesterol) as well. LIPITOR can lower the risk

for heart attack, stroke, certain types of heart surgery,

and chest pain in patients who have heart disease or risk

factors for heart disease such as age, smoking, high blood

pressure, low HDL, or family history of early heart disease.

LIPITOR can lower the risk for heart attack or stroke in

patients with diabetes and risk factors such as diabetic

eye or kidney problems, smoking, or high blood pressure.
