Why this happens
Atorvastatin and losartan are processed by different pathways in the liver and do not interfere with how the body absorbs or removes each other. They also work on different systems (cholesterol vs. blood pressure) without causing harmful additive effects.
What you should do
You can safely take these medicines together as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually best to take them at the same time each day to help you remember. Always inform your doctor if you experience unusual muscle pain or weakness, which is a rare side effect of statins, but this is not caused by taking losartan.

Patient picks for Drug interactions

Tratamiento y medicación
Can I take Ashwagandha and Oestrogel pump-pack /actuation together?
Ashwagandha may increase the levels of oestrogen in your body, potentially making the effects of your Oestrogel stronger than intended. It might also interfere with how your body naturally balances hormones.

Tratamiento y medicación
Can I take Clarithromycin and Rosuvastatin together?
Taking these two medicines together can significantly increase the amount of rosuvastatin in your blood. This increases the risk of serious muscle damage (rhabdomyolysis), which can lead to kidney problems. Symptoms to watch for include unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness, especially if you also feel generally unwell or have a fever.
