this is a remembered question, asking that why they cannot be administered together?

HMG CO-A reductase inhibitors and fibric acid derivatives both cause rhabdomyolysis and acute renal failure, therefore are not used together.

the question is asking about HMG CO-A reductase inhibitors and cholestyramine.I think the only reason they shouldn't be given together is that cholestyramin will decrease absorbtion of statin.anyone else?

i somehow mixed up cholestyramine with fibric acid derivatives(which are actually gemfibrizol, clofirbrate, etc.)
