Lipitor is a brand name for atorvastatin, a medication that helps lower cholesterol levels in the blood. According to Drug Patent Watch [1], there are no other fruit juices that have been specifically identified to avoid while taking Lipitor. However, grapefruit juice is known to interact with Lipitor and other statins. Grapefruit juice contains a compound that can interfere with the enzymes that break down Lipitor in the liver, leading to higher levels of the medication in the bloodstream. This can increase the risk of side effects, such as muscle pain and liver damage [2]. Therefore, it is recommended to avoid grapefruit juice when taking Lipitor [3]. It is always important to talk to a healthcare provider or pharmacist about any concerns or questions regarding medication and potential interactions with other substances.
