The most common adverse events (>3% of patients with coadministered statins) are *Headache *Back pain *Nasopharyngitis *Nausea *Myalgia *Joint pain or arthralgia *Diarrhea *Upper respiratory tract infection *Calculi (Kidney Stones) Precautions When<unk>  and a statin are given as combination therapy, it is recommended that<unk>  be given in the morning and the statin at night, so that the peak dosages do not overlap. Musculoskeletal *Myopathy and rhabdomyolysis; increased risk when coadminstered with a statin, particularly in the elderly and patients with diabetes, kidney failure, hypothyroidism Hepatotoxicity *Can increase serum transaminases; liver tests should be monitored periodically Nephrotoxicity *Can increase serum creatinine levels; renal function should be monitored periodically in patients with chronic kidney disease Biliary *Can increase cholesterol excretion into the bile, leading to risk of cholelithiasis; if suspected, gallbladder studies are indicated. See "Interaction" section under Bile acid sequestrant Coagulation/Bleeding *Exercise caution in concomitant treatment with oral Coumadin anticoagulants (e.g. warfarin). Adjust the dosage of Coumadin to maintain the prothrombin time/INR at desired level to prevent bleeding complications.
