As such there is no significant drug interaction among such classes of drugs. You have not specified which drugs you are taking for treatment of diabetes and osteoporosis. If depends upon drugs. Some anti-diabetic drugs are contraindicated in patients with heart failure such thiazolidinediones class of anti-diabetic drugs. But as far as interaction is concerned there is no significant drug interaction.
Statin can be used in patients with heart failure. It does not aggravate heart failure. It can be taken along with other drugs which are used for treatment of heart failure.
