According to Drugs.com, there are no known interactions between atorvastatin (the active ingredient in Lipitor) and probiotics. However, it is always important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medications or supplements, including probiotics. A study published in the journal Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics found that probiotics did not have a significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of atorvastatin. However, more research is needed to fully understand the potential interactions between atorvastatin and probiotics. It is always important to follow the instructions of a healthcare professional and to disclose all medications and supplements being taken.
