Lipitor is a medication used to treat high cholesterol levels in the blood [1]. It is recommended to be taken once a day, at the same time each day, with or without food. However, it is important to note that consuming fatty meats can increase cholesterol levels in the blood, which may reduce the effectiveness of Lipitor [2].

The NHS website suggests that people who have undergone coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery should avoid fatty foods, including fatty meats, to reduce the risk of further heart problems [2]. Additionally, a Reuters article highlights a study that found that taking a statin, such as Lipitor, before consuming a high-fat meal may reduce the harmful effects of the meal on the body [3].

Therefore, it is recommended to avoid consuming fatty meats, or any high-fat meals, while taking Lipitor. If consuming such foods cannot be avoided, it may be beneficial to take Lipitor before the meal to potentially reduce the negative effects on cholesterol levels in the blood. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before making any changes to medication use or dietary habits [1][2][3].
