Any side effects of combining lipitor and allergy meds?



Lipitor is a brand name for atorvastatin, which is a medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood [3]. According to Drug Patent Watch [1], there are no known interactions between Lipitor and allergy medications. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before taking any new medications, especially if you are already taking other medications.

It is also important to note that mixing alcohol with medications can be harmful and lead to adverse side effects [2]. This includes mixing alcohol with Lipitor, which can increase the risk of liver damage. Therefore, it is recommended to avoid drinking alcohol while taking Lipitor.

In summary, there are no known interactions between Lipitor and allergy medications, but it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before taking any new medications. Additionally, it is recommended to avoid drinking alcohol while taking Lipitor to prevent liver damage.
