Can Lipitor be taken with statins?

The generic name of Lipinz is fenofibrate. If indicated, fenofibrate and statin drugs can be taken orally at the same time, but it is necessary to pay attention to strengthen the monitoring of liver function and muscle enzymes. Fenofibrate is a triglyceride-lowering drug, and statins mainly lower cholesterol. For severe mixed hyperlipidemia, fenofibrate and statins can be combined at the same time, and the lipid-lowering effect of the two together will be significantly increased, but the side effects of the drug will also be significantly increased. Fenofibrate and statins will increase the impairment of liver function, and the risk of rhabdomyolysis will be significantly higher, the combination of the two drugs should be regularly rechecked liver enzymes and myelin enzymes, to avoid serious liver function impairment and rhabdomyolysis. Patients who are allergic to the components of the two drugs and have severe liver function impairment are prohibited from using the two drugs in combination, and the drugs should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
