How Should I Take Generic Lipitor?

Generic Lipitor comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It is usually taken once a day with or without food. Take Generic Lipitor at around the same time every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take Generic Lipitor exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.
Your doctor may start you on a low dose of Generic Lipitor and gradually increase your dose, not more than once every 2-4 weeks.
Continue to take Generic Lipitor even if you feel well. Do not stop taking Generic Lipitor without talking to your doctor.
Keep out of the reach of children in a container that small children cannot open. Store at controlled room temperature between 20 to 25 degrees C (68 to 77 degrees F). Keep container tightly closed. Throw away any unused medicine after the expiration date.

What are the CONTRAINDICATIONS for taking Generic Lipitor?

    Do not use Generic Lipitor if:
  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Generic Lipitor
  • you have liver problems or unexplained abnormal liver function tests
  • you are pregnant or breast-feeding
  • you are taking an HIV protease inhibitor (eg, ritonavir), itraconazole, or mibefradil
Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

What Happens if I MISS A DOSE?

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember it. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

What happens if I OVERDOSE?

Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have taken too much Generic Lipitor.

What are the possible SIDE EFFECTS of Generic Lipitor?

Generic Lipitor is generally well-tolerated, and side effects are rare. Minor side effects include constipation, diarrhea, fatigue, gas, heartburn, and headache. Generic Lipitor should be used with caution in patients with alcohol or other liver diseases. Persistently abnormal liver tests during treatment are rare but may require discontinuation of the medication. Rare cases of muscle inflammation (myositis) and breakdown have been reported with other drugs in this class (HMGCoA reductase antagonists), and it is assumed that this side effect also may occur with Generic Lipitor. Muscle breakdown causes the release of muscle protein (myoglobin) into the blood and accumulation of the protein in the kidney tubules, resulting in kidney failure.

What other drugs can INTERACT with Generic Lipitor?

    Some medicines may interact with Generic Lipitor . Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:
  • Amiodarone, azole antifungals (eg, itraconazole, ketoconazole), colchicine, diltiazem, fibrates (eg, gemfibrozil, clofibrate), fluconazole, HIV protease inhibitors (eg, ritonavir), imatinib, immunosuppressants (eg, cyclosporine), macrolides (eg, erythromycin), mibefradil, nefazodone, niacin, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (eg, delavirdine), streptogramins (eg, dalfopristin), telithromycin, vasopressin receptor antagonists (eg, conivaptan), verapamil, or voriconazole because they may increase the risk of muscle or kidney problems
  • Bosentan, carbamazepine, rifampin, or St. John's wort because they may decrease Lipitor 's effectiveness
  • Digoxin, hormonal birth control (eg, birth control pills), macrolide immunosuppressants (eg, tacrolimus), or spironolactone because the risk of their side effects may be increased by Lipitor
This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Generic Lipitor may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.
