Is Cholesterol Medication Safe To Be Taken While On Lovastatin?
I will be taking lovastatin ordered by my DR. But since my blood sugar is slight high I must avoid too much carbohydrates. I considered myself a moderate healthy eater and green salads with beans, a little bit of olive oil are my main meal. I am concerned about taking cholesterol med because it can interferes with my salads, since they are very high in vitamin k.

Hello
There is no problem in healthy individuals in taking good salad and STATIN medicine. However in patients who are on some kind of anticoagulation medicine like WARFARIN or ACITROM.
So dont worry you can take and most importantly if you want to control your cholesterol levels then start doing exercise daily.
