Lipitor

Lipitor, also known as Atorvastatin, is part of a group of medicines called HMG CoA reductase inhibitors ("statins") and help lower cholesterol. It works by clearing lipoprotein from the blood and then lowers the body's chance of forming lipoprotein cholesterol by blocking an enzyme which produces the cholesterol in the liver. By taking Lipitor, you are reducing your chances of having a heart attack or heart disease by raising HDL (good cholesterol) and lowering LDL (bad cholesterol).

Lipitor should be taken in conjunction with a change in diet and a exercise plan to have optimal effects.

Lipitor is to be taken once a day with or without food and should be taken at the same time each day. If a dosage is missed, take it as soon as remembered or if you are close to the next dosage, skip the missed one and continue on the regular schedule. Never take two doses at the same time.

Lipitor should not be used if you are:

  • you are allergic to atorvastatin or any ingredients contained in Lipitor
  • pregnant or plan to be pregnant
  • breast feeding
  • have liver disease

  • constipation
  • diarrhea
  • gas
  • headache
  • heartburn

  • vomiting

Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of these very rare side effects:

  • nerve damage: muscle weakness, decreased sensation in the hands and feet, loss of balance, numbness, or tingling or prickling sensations

  • severe skin rash: including skin blistering and peeling (possibly with headache, fever, coughing, or aching before the rash begins)
