Hi Beva70,
Decreased sex drive is not a typical side effect of lipitor, but that doesn't mean it's not the cause. I recommend discussing with your physician. If you are taking Lipitor I recommend you also discuss supplmenting coenzyme Q10 with your physician. Check out the article below to learn more.
