Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM.
I am here to help you.
Drugs like Pravastatin and Fenofibrate can cause liver problems. And should be used with caution in case of pre existing liver problems.
I advice you following :
1. Give me detailed history of her back pain and liver problems.
2. Ultrasound Abdomen
3. LFT
4. Lipid profile
5. Ionized Serum Calcium.
Please review with details and these investigations for a better help.
Stay Healthy
