Can lipitor increase the potency of white wine?



Lipitor, also known as atorvastatin, is a medication that is used to lower cholesterol levels in the body [1]. While there is no direct evidence that suggests that Lipitor can increase the potency of white wine, it is recommended that alcohol consumption be limited while taking this medication. According to Verywell Health [2], drinking alcohol while taking Lipitor can increase the risk of liver damage and can also lead to an increase in triglyceride levels, which can contribute to heart disease. The Recovery Village [3] also notes that drinking alcohol while taking Lipitor can increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating. Therefore, it is recommended that individuals taking Lipitor should limit their alcohol consumption and speak with their healthcare provider about any concerns they may have about drinking while taking this medication.
