Can statin drugs (i.e. Crestor) be taken at the same time with calcium, vitamin!
Question:
Answers:
Aspirin, no. Consult your doctor. The other vitamins and minerals, I would say use a liquid vitamin. This way it gets absorbed faster and doesnt interfere with the drugs and give you a bad feeling in your stomach.
Other Answers:
Yes, but check with your pharmacist to see if it's okay to eat grapefruit (or anything containing it) with your particular statin drug. I take Lipitor and grapefruit is contraindicated with it.
Yes, there are no contraindications between statins and vitamins or aspirin, but you will want to be careful about taking Tylenol since it is metabolized by the liver just like the statins. It's okay to take Tylenol with Crestor, just not too much.
