Based on the information available, there is no direct evidence to suggest that Lipitor, a medication used to treat high cholesterol, influences Vitamin D absorption.
Lipitor, also known as atorvastatin, is a statin medication that works by blocking a substance your body needs to make cholesterol [1]. On the other hand, Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is crucial for calcium absorption, bone health, and immune system function [2].
While both Lipitor and Vitamin D are fat-soluble, there is no scientific evidence to support the claim that Lipitor use directly impacts Vitamin D absorption. It's important to note that certain factors, such as age, obesity, and limited sun exposure, can affect Vitamin D levels in the body [2].
Therefore, while Lipitor may affect cholesterol levels and potentially interact with other medications, it does not appear to have a direct impact on Vitamin D absorption based on the available information [1][2].
