Based on the information available, there is no direct evidence to suggest that Lipitor, a medication used to treat high cholesterol, decreases the body's omega-3 content. Lipitor is a statin, a type of drug that works by blocking a substance your body needs to make cholesterol [1].
On the other hand, omega-3 fatty acids are a type of fat that is essential for human health. They are necessary for brain function, reducing inflammation, and may help decrease the risk of heart disease and stroke [2].
While both Lipitor and omega-3 fatty acids can impact cardiovascular health, they do so in different ways and there is no evidence to suggest that Lipitor directly decreases omega-3 content in the body. However, it's always important to consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist for personalized advice regarding medication and dietary supplements [3].
