Can I take Atorvastatin and Fexofenadine together?

Por qué sucede esto

Atorvastatin and fexofenadine are processed by different pathways in the body. Atorvastatin is primarily broken down by a liver enzyme called CYP3A4, while fexofenadine is mostly removed from the body unchanged by the kidneys and through transport proteins. Because they do not compete for the same 'processing machinery', they do not interfere with each other's levels in the blood.

You can continue to take both medicines as prescribed by your doctor. As with any medication, if you notice any unusual symptoms such as unexplained muscle pain or extreme tiredness, you should contact your healthcare provider.
