Lipitor is a medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood. It is not recommended for use during breastfeeding as it is known to pass through breast milk [1]. The active ingredient in Lipitor, atorvastatin, has been detected in the breast milk of lactating rats and is expected to be present in human breast milk as well [2]. The FDA advises that women who are breastfeeding should not take Lipitor, and that alternative medications should be considered [3]. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider before taking any medication while breastfeeding to ensure the safety of both the mother and the infant.
