A member asked:
Could you take lipotor every other day and be fine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lipitor (atorvastatin): Taking the medication every other day will not be directly harmful, but it will prevent the medication from being as effective as it should be. Recommend taking all medications as prescribed, or discussing with your doctor as to why you cannot.
