Anyone on this medication for cholesterol while on a cycle?
Currently prescribed because my b/w came back w high cholesterol?
But I'm sure it's because of my aas use? Never had cholesterol issues before?

Lipitor is a statin.

Statins are very good at lowering cholesterol.

Things to watch out for:

Some people experience problems with insulin sensitivity/blood sugar while on statins.

Statins can cause muscle soreness and muscle breakdown in rare cases.

Some people can experience nausea and abdominal pain as a result of statin use. In some rare cases, these can be signs of statin-induced liver damage.

Mostly, though, statins like Lipitor are pretty well-tolerated.

Your lipids will be shit while on cycle. I wouldn’t take Rx meds based on on-cycle bloodwork.

My oncologist thought my kidneys were failing because I was on tren.

Nothing acute will happen to you because of poor lipids. BP is a different case.

My diet is clean & believed this was the reason I planned not to take it! Thanks

Oats. Natural and proven effective to lower cholesterol levels. I have known 2 guys that went from off the chart bad cholesterol levels to good cholesterol levels in 90 days from adding oatmeal and cheerios to their diet.

If it's low dose, shouldn't harm you. I'm a big believer in diet controls cholesterol though.
