A prescription written for which of the following drugs could be filled with atorvastatin if generic substitution is allowed?

Lipitor
Lopid
Mevacor
Zocor

The correct answer is: Lipitor

If generic substitution is allowed, a prescription written for Lipitor could be filled with atorvastatin. Atorvastatin is the generic name for Lipitor, so it is the correct generic equivalent option for this drug. The other options, Lopid, Mevacor, and Zocor, do not have atorvastatin as their generic equivalent, which is why they are incorrect choices in this scenario.
