Pfizer faces onslaught of lawsuits over Lipitor
Crain's New York Business Mon, 17 Jul 2006 11:41 AM PDT
More than a dozen personal injury suits were filed against Pfizer Inc.
Friday alleging that the company concealed serious and permanent health
risks associated with the cholesterol drug Lipitor


Excerpt:
"The plaintiffs include Lydia Fish, widow of Hamilton Fish, the late U.S.
Congressman from New York. She alleges that she has suffered peripheral
neuropathy, memory loss and other conditions as a result of using Lipitor"

You recently stated:

"A recently published medical journal article showed 100% of statin
patients have muscle damage identifiable on muscle biopsy after only a
few
months.

Another recently published study showed all statin patients have
measurable
cognitive impacts after 6 months.

Another recently published study showed neuropathy 26 times more likely
in
statin patients."



Could you please supply links for these three statements?

Thank you.
