Cardioace contains several ingredients, including Garlic extract and Omega-3 fatty acids. When taken with atorvastatin, there is a small possibility of an increased risk of muscle-related side effects or changes in how the liver processes the medication. Additionally, the Garlic in Cardioace may slightly increase the risk of bruising or bleeding if you are also taking blood-thinning medications alongside your statin.

Por que isso acontece
Some components in herbal supplements like Garlic can interfere with the liver enzymes (specifically CYP3A4) that break down atorvastatin, potentially leading to slightly higher levels of the drug in your blood. Omega-3s and atorvastatin both have effects on blood vessels and cholesterol, which is usually beneficial but requires monitoring.
O que você deve fazer
Voltar ao conteúdoIt is generally safe to take these together, but you should inform your doctor or pharmacist. Watch out for any unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness (especially if you also have a fever). If you notice these symptoms, contact your doctor. It is also wise to have your regular liver function blood tests as scheduled by your GP.

Precauções importantes
Voltar ao conteúdoGravidez
You must not take atorvastatin if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as it may harm the developing baby. Use effective contraception while taking this medicine.
Unexplained muscle pain - atorvastatina
You must contact your doctor immediately if you experience any unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness. In rare cases, this can lead to serious kidney problems.
Avisos sobre alimentos e bebidas
Voltar ao conteúdoSuco de toranja
O suco de toranja contém compostos que podem aumentar o nível de atorvastatina no seu sangue. Isso pode aumentar o risco de efeitos colaterais, como dor ou danos musculares. Evite beber grandes quantidades (mais de 1,2 litros por dia), embora seja mais seguro evitá-lo completamente enquanto estiver tomando este medicamento.
Álcool
While there is no direct interaction, drinking large amounts of alcohol regularly can increase the risk of liver problems when taking a statin. It is best to stay within the recommended weekly limits.
Foods high in Vitamin K (e.g. spinach, kale, broccoli)
Cardioace contains Vitamin K. If you are taking blood-thinning medication like warfarin, sudden changes in your intake of Vitamin K (from supplements or food) can interfere with how your medicine works. Consult your doctor before starting this supplement if you are on anticoagulants.

Can I take Sertraline and Fluoxetine together?
Taking sertraline and fluoxetine together significantly increases the risk of a rare but serious condition called serotonin syndrome. This happens because both medicines work by increasing the level of a chemical called serotonin in your brain. If levels get too high, it can cause symptoms like shivering, diarrhoea, confusion, severe muscle tightness, fever, and even seizures. Additionally, fluoxetine can slow down how your body breaks down sertraline, leading to a build-up of the drug in your system and increasing the risk of side effects.

Can I take Lisinopril and Potassium together?
Taking lisinopril and potassium supplements together can cause the levels of potassium in your blood to become dangerously high (a condition called hyperkalaemia). While your body needs potassium for your heart and muscles to work, too much of it can lead to serious heart rhythm problems or even cause the heart to stop. Symptoms of high potassium can include muscle weakness, tingling sensations, or palpitations, but often there are no symptoms until the level is very high.
