The typical cholesterol reduction percentage with Lipitor (atorvastatin) is about 25% to 45% [1][2]. This percentage can vary depending on the individual's initial cholesterol levels, the dosage of Lipitor prescribed, and other factors such as lifestyle and diet.

Lipitor is a statin medication that works by blocking a substance your body needs to make cholesterol. It is often prescribed to reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other heart complications in people with type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, or other risk factors [3].

It's important to note that while Lipitor can help lower cholesterol levels, it is most effective when used in conjunction with a heart-healthy lifestyle, including a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding tobacco use [3].
