Additionally, Sutter Health advises individuals with high cholesterol to limit their alcohol consumption, as excessive alcohol intake can raise triglyceride levels and contribute to liver damage [3]. However, there is no specific information available on how much Lipitor affects alcohol absorption. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider regarding any concerns about alcohol consumption while taking Lipitor or any other medication.
