Does lipitor interact with leafy greens?



Lipitor is a medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood. There is no evidence to suggest that it interacts with leafy greens. However, it is important to note that some foods, including leafy greens, can interfere with the absorption of certain medications, including Lipitor. It is recommended to take Lipitor at least two hours before or four hours after consuming foods that are high in fiber, such as leafy greens, to ensure maximum absorption of the medication. It is always important to consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist before making any changes to medication or diet.
