How should lipitor be taken alongside probiotics?



When taking Lipitor (atorvastatin) alongside probiotics, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist. According to information from DrugPatentWatch, there is no specific mention of interactions between Lipitor and probiotics. However, the NHS website suggests that it is generally safe to take atorvastatin with most supplements, including probiotics. Nevertheless, it is always best to seek professional advice as interactions can vary based on individual health conditions and the specific formulation of probiotics being used. The Drugs.com resource also does not list any significant interactions between atorvastatin and probiotic formulas. To ensure the safe and effective use of both medications, consulting a healthcare professional is recommended.
