Atorvastatin is a common drug that lowers blood cholesterol levels. It was developed by Pfizer in the trade name of Lipitor.

According to the researcher, Atorvastatin has been growing rapidly since it entered China, with its sales revenue increasing from less than CNY 200 million in 2005 to more than CNY 2.21 billion in 2017. There is a high demand for Atorvastatin in China.
