Brief Answer:
side effects of the drugs, symptomatic treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Both the drugs you are using can cause constipation as side effect.
And simavastatin can lead to increase frequency of urination.
So your symptoms could be side effects of your drugs only.
Now you once consult your physician and rule out the possibility of Take care.
