There is no direct scientific evidence to suggest that Lipitor, a medication used to treat high cholesterol, will affect the taste of berries. Lipitor is a statin drug that works by blocking a substance your body needs to make cholesterol [1]. It is primarily metabolized in the liver and does not interact directly with taste receptors in the mouth [2].

However, it is important to note that certain medications can cause changes in taste, known as dysgeusia [3]. This side effect is typically associated with chemotherapy drugs, not cholesterol-lowering medications like Lipitor [4].

Moreover, Lipitor's manufacturer, Pfizer, does not list changes in taste as a potential side effect in its patient information leaflet [5].

Therefore, while medications can sometimes cause changes in taste, there is no specific evidence or indication that Lipitor will affect the taste of berries.
