Lipitor is a brand name for the drug atorvastatin, which is used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood [1]. Amlodipine and atorvastatin are often prescribed together to treat high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels [2]. The dosage and frequency of these medications should be determined by a doctor, and it is important to follow their instructions carefully.

According to the Mayo Clinic, amlodipine and atorvastatin should be taken exactly as prescribed by a doctor, and it is important not to take more or less than the recommended dose [2]. The medication can be taken with or without food, but it is important to take it at the same time every day to maintain consistent levels in the body. Patients should continue taking the medication even if they feel well, as high blood pressure and high cholesterol often have no symptoms.

Lipitor (atorvastatin) can cause side effects, including muscle pain, weakness, and tenderness, and patients should report any unusual symptoms to their doctor [3]. It is important to tell a doctor about all medications being taken, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, as some may interact with amlodipine and atorvastatin.

In summary, the frequency and dosage of Lipitor (atorvastatin) and amlodipine should be determined by a doctor, and patients should follow their instructions carefully. The medications should be taken at the same time every day, and patients should report any unusual symptoms to their doctor. It is important to tell a doctor about all medications being taken, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, as some may interact with amlodipine and atorvastatin.
