What are lipitor liver test results?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for lipitor

Lipitor, a medication commonly used to treat high cholesterol, can sometimes affect liver function. Therefore, liver tests are occasionally performed to monitor potential side effects [1]. However, it's important to note that I'm an AI and I don't have real-time access to specific test results.

Liver function tests typically measure the levels of certain enzymes and proteins in your blood. Elevated levels of these enzymes can indicate liver damage or disease [2].

In the case of Lipitor (atorvastatin), mild increases in liver enzymes have been observed in some patients. However, these increases are typically not associated with any symptoms and often do not require discontinuation of the medication [3].

If you're taking Lipitor and have concerns about your liver test results, it's crucial to consult with your healthcare provider. They can provide a comprehensive interpretation of your results, taking into account your medical history and current health status [1].
