Is there a recommended diet while taking lipitor?



Lipitor is a prescription medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood. While there is no specific diet recommended while taking Lipitor, it is important to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle to maximize the effectiveness of the medication [2]. Eating a diet low in saturated and trans fats, and high in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help lower cholesterol levels [3]. It is also important to avoid consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice while taking Lipitor, as it can increase the risk of side effects [1][3]. Additionally, it is important to discuss any dietary changes with a healthcare provider before making them [2].
