Based on the information available, there is no evidence to suggest that Lipitor, a medication commonly used to treat high cholesterol, can help control sugar cravings [1]. Lipitor, the brand name for the drug atorvastatin, works by blocking a substance your body needs to make cholesterol [2]. It does not have any direct impact on blood sugar levels or sugar cravings.

It's important to note that while Lipitor does not affect sugar cravings, maintaining a balanced diet is a crucial part of managing both cholesterol levels and blood sugar levels [3]. If you're experiencing strong sugar cravings, it may be related to other factors such as stress, lack of sleep, or a diet lacking in essential nutrients [4].

In conclusion, while Lipitor is an effective medication for managing cholesterol levels, it does not help control sugar cravings. If you're experiencing issues with sugar cravings, it may be beneficial to speak with a healthcare provider or a nutritionist to identify potential underlying causes and develop a suitable plan.
