Based on the information available, there is no definitive guidance suggesting that Lipitor (atorvastatin) dosage should be adjusted after exposure to pool chlorine. It is generally recommended to maintain consistent dosages of medication, unless otherwise directed by a healthcare professional [1].

Lipitor is a medication used to treat high cholesterol levels and prevent cardiovascular disease [1]. The drug's efficacy and safety profile are established based on clinical trials and post-marketing surveillance, and there is no evidence to suggest that pool chlorine exposure has a significant impact on the drug's absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion [1][2].

It is important to note that individual factors, such as age, weight, liver and kidney function, and other medications being taken, can affect the way Lipitor is metabolized in the body [1]. Therefore, any changes in these factors or the development of adverse effects should be reported to a healthcare professional [1].

In summary, based on the available information, there is no need to adjust Lipitor dosage after pool chlorine exposure. However, it is always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized medical advice [1].
