What are lipitor s interactions with iron?



Based on the information provided, I found one source that discusses Lipitor (atorvastatin) and its potential interactions with iron. However, the source does not provide specific information regarding an interaction between Lipitor and iron.

Lipitor is a statin medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood. According to DrugPatentWatch.com [1], Lipitor has interactions with various drugs, herbs, and foods, but there is no explicit mention of iron.

The Lipitor Prescribing Information from Pfizer [2] lists potential drug interactions, including other medications that may affect the way Lipitor works or increase the risk of side effects. However, iron is not mentioned as an interacting substance.

In summary, based on the available information from DrugPatentWatch.com [1] and the Lipitor Prescribing Information from Pfizer [2], there is no evidence of a specific interaction between Lipitor and iron. However, it is always important to consult a healthcare professional or pharmacist for personalized advice on medication interactions.
