Can i safely combine lipitor and ibuprofen?



Combining Lipitor (atorvastatin) with ibuprofen may not be safe for everyone. Ibuprofen can interact with atorvastatin, potentially increasing the risk of side effects such as kidney problems. It is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider before combining these medications to ensure safety and effectiveness. The NHS website recommends caution when taking atorvastatin with other medications, including ibuprofen, due to potential interactions [3]. DrugPatentWatch also provides information on the drugs individually but does not specifically address their interaction [1]. Drugs.com highlights the potential interaction between ibuprofen and Lipitor, emphasizing the importance of consulting a healthcare professional before combining these medications [2].
