Atorvastatin
My doctor prescribed atorvastatin 10mg last year and my cholesterol levels have significantly improved. My doctor has suggested me to take it regularly. But since last few weeks I am having bloating, breathlessness and flatulence after eating. There is no abdominal pain but a discomfort persists. Can 10mg of atorvastatin daily damage my liver? I also want to tell that I am under treatment for anxiety and in January my dosage was changed from Nexito Plus to Nexito LS. Kindly give me advice.

Hi dear
If u have been taking atorvastatin since last year then the flatulence now is unlikely due to it.
Also it is quite safe for liver as well
Only thing is that we need to put more focus on ur daily lifestyle so that we can find out what has changed and has caused this issue
Kindly consult so I can guide u better
Take care

There is no known interaction between nexito plus and atorvastatin, so don’t worry about it. As far as liver failure is concerned, that’s also a very unlikely
