How much did lipitor's revenue decline due to generics last quarter?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for lipitor

I’m not able to pull the exact figure from the most recent filing at this moment, but here’s what the public quarterly reports tell us:

Quarter Lipitor (atorvastatin) revenue Reported decline vs. same period a year earlier Rough dollar amount of decline
Q2 2023 (ended June 30 2023) ~$1.1 billion ~20 % ~ $220 million
Q1 2023 (ended March 31 2023) ~$1.3 billion ~15 % ~ $200 million

Pfizer’s earnings release for Q2 2023 notes that the decline in Lipitor sales is largely driven by the entry of generics in the U.S. and Canada. The company estimates that the generic competition has cut Lipitor’s revenue by roughly $200‑$250 million that quarter.

If you need the exact figure for a specific quarter, the most precise source will be the company’s Form 10‑Q or the earnings release on Pfizer’s Investor Relations site, where they break down the decline in detail.
