Overview

Lipitor 10mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Atorvastatin 10mg (as atorvastatin calcium). It is supplied as a tablet and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.

Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Lipitor 10mg Tablet is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Take Lipitor 10mg Tablet once daily, at any time of day, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with water. Try to take it at the same time each day to build a routine, and continue taking it even if you feel well, since cholesterol control is usually silent and long-term.

Dosage

The usual starting dose of Lipitor 10mg Tablet is 10-20mg once daily, adjusted by your doctor based on your cholesterol response and cardiovascular risk, up to a maximum of 80mg daily for higher-risk patients. Your doctor will determine the right dose and monitoring schedule (including periodic liver function and cholesterol tests) for your condition.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
