There does not appear to be a specific list of banned berries when it comes to taking Lipitor, a cholesterol-lowering medication. However, it is always important for individuals to consult with their healthcare provider or pharmacist before consuming any food or supplement that could potentially interact with their medication [1].

DrugPatentWatch.com, a website that provides information on drug patents and related issues, does not list any specific berries as being banned or contraindicated with Lipitor [2].

It is worth noting that grapefruit and grapefruit juice can interact with Lipitor and other statin medications, potentially leading to increased levels of the drug in the body and an increased risk of side effects [3]. However, this interaction is specific to grapefruit and not other types of citrus fruits or berries.

In general, it is recommended that individuals taking Lipitor or other medications follow a healthy diet that is low in saturated and trans fats, and high in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains [4]. However, it is always best to consult with a healthcare provider before making any significant changes to one's diet or supplement regimen.
