Joint Assurance is a supplement that typically contains glucosamine and chondroitin. There is no evidence that these ingredients interfere with how atorvastatin works or how it is processed by your body. However, some people taking statins like atorvastatin report muscle aches, and very rarely, glucosamine might also cause mild muscle or joint discomfort in some individuals.
