Can lipitor interfere with plant based protein supplements?



Lipitor is a medication used to lower cholesterol levels in the body, while plant-based protein supplements are dietary supplements that are used to increase protein intake. There is no evidence to suggest that Lipitor can interfere with plant-based protein supplements [1][2]. However, it is important to note that Lipitor can interact with certain foods and supplements, including grapefruit juice and red yeast rice, which can increase the risk of side effects [2][3]. Therefore, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider before taking any new supplements or making significant changes to your diet while taking Lipitor [2].
