Lipitor is a medication used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke [1]. According to a Harvard Health Publishing article, moderate alcohol consumption, defined as up to one drink per day for women and up to two drinks per day for men, may have a protective effect on the heart [2]. However, alcohol can interfere with the effectiveness of statins, including Lipitor, and increase the risk of side effects such as liver damage and muscle pain [2]. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider before consuming alcohol while taking Lipitor or any other medication. Additionally, it is recommended to limit alcohol consumption and maintain a healthy lifestyle to manage high cholesterol levels [3].
