Restricted Medications

I have searched the FAA site for a list of restricted medications, but with
no luck. Does anybody have a link? My doctor wants me to start cholesterol
medication. Will this void my medical?

Thanks

Perhaps leftseat.com then?

I've had no dealings with them, but it seems to be a "we help you get
your medical if we can" site.

Good luck.

If you had said which medication, half of us would have told you to join
AOPA and look it up for yourself, and the other half to join AOPA but tell
you if it is approved anyway. Crestor and Lipitor are OK, as are 6 others.

By the way, neither I nor AOPA make any claims that the guidance is
authoritative.

Yep, FWIW, I'm taking Lipitor and just got my FAA Class 2 medical renewed.
