Surprise, Pfizer Study Says Lipitor Beats Generic Zocor

You did not miss a thing. Mike Huckman did. Atorvastatin did perform differently than simvastatin in the pfizer supported trial because they are DIFFERENT DRUGS. Huckman has displayed not only his failure to actually READ the studies, but also his ignorance of statins, and by extension, all medications. He should put away his "Jump to Clonclusions" mat and actually do his homework instead of cruising he internet for sports scores all day.
