Which allergy meds interact with lipitor?



According to the sources provided, there are several allergy medications that can interact with Lipitor. However, the specific medications mentioned are not allergy medications, but rather medications used for other purposes.

The first source, Drug Patent Watch [1], provides information about the patent status of Lipitor. This source does not provide any information about drug interactions.

The second source, WebMD [2], provides detailed information about Lipitor, including its uses, dosage, side effects, and drug interactions. According to this source, Lipitor may interact with certain medications used to treat allergies, such as corticosteroids like dexamethasone and prednisone. These medications can increase the risk of muscle problems when taken with Lipitor. It is important to talk to a doctor before taking any new medications while on Lipitor.

The third source, COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines [3], provides information about drug interactions with Paxlovid, a medication used to treat COVID-19. This source notes that Paxlovid should not be taken with certain medications, including certain allergy medications such as fexofenadine and loratadine. However, this information is specific to Paxlovid and may not apply to Lipitor.

In summary, while the sources provided do not specifically mention allergy medications that interact with Lipitor, it is important to talk to a doctor before taking any new medications while on Lipitor, including allergy medications. Some medications used to treat allergies, such as corticosteroids, may increase the risk of muscle problems when taken with Lipitor.
