(Reuters) - Health regulators will add warnings to the labels of widely used cholesterol lowering drugs, such as Lipitor, to indicate that they may raise levels of blood sugar and could cause memory loss.
The Food and Drug administration announced the changes to the safety information on the labels of statins such as Pfizer Inc's Lipitor, AstraZeneca's Crestor and Merck & Co's Zocor.

I would expect Zocor to be the worst in this regard for memory as it is more lipophilic (fat soluble) than the others which are moderate.
But this is the beginning of the end for statins, IMO.
The diabetes connection is rather new, and a surprise really.
The PN factor remains unspoken even though there is evidence for it.
