Can lipitor change the taste of other drinks?



According to the sources provided, there is no direct evidence to suggest that Lipitor, which contains atorvastatin, can change the taste of other drinks. However, it is possible that atorvastatin can cause changes in taste and smell as a side effect. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) state that changes in taste and smell are common as people age and can also be caused by medications, such as atorvastatin. The NHS website lists altered taste as a possible side effect of atorvastatin. It is important to note that side effects can vary from person to person, and not everyone who takes atorvastatin will experience changes in taste or smell. Therefore, it is recommended to speak with a healthcare provider if any concerning side effects occur while taking Lipitor or atorvastatin.
