My Atorvastatin from the same pharmacy (Walmart) had GRE on the label one time and LEG on the same medicine the next time. What does GRE and LEG mean? Are they different?

No, it is the same medication, those are just abbreviations for the manufacturers, since this is a generic. For example, the GRE usually stands for Greenstone, which is the name of a pharmaceutical manufacturer.

The FDA lists the typical side effects for this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and joint/muscle aches.

Is there anything else I can help with?
