smurfy........I think that you might find an article somewhere on the medical www that would suggest that ANY of the vitamins MAY have an inter reaction with certain statins.

Me? if i wanted to take a vitamin supplement for any reason and i was taking statins, then i would just go ahead and take them.

Smurfchops have you just gone onto statins, I ask as I have been on them for 3 months and my cholesterol has gone down from 6.1 to 3.0 doc and I very happy, hope they work for you

magicmick my cholesterol was 7.7 and the doctor put me on 40mg a day of Simvastatin about two years ago. My cholesterol went down to 4.6 but I wasnt happy taking 40mg so I took it down to 20mg, and now my cholesterol is around 5.0. Doc seems happy, I'm happy, we're all happy! No side effects either, no muscle pain etc. I felt like I was a walking time bomb before I took them, better safe than sorry.
