What Interaction Does Pravastatin Sodium Have With Azathioprine?
What interaction does Pravastatin Sodium 40 mg (for elevated cholesterol and triglycerides) have with Azathioprine 50 mg (for hepatitis B)? I am being followed and medicated for Epilepsy. I have 2 cysts on my right kidney and 1 cyst on my left kidney. My PCP wants to get an MRI to rule out a pinched nerve. I am seeing a chiropractor for cervical pain and lumbar pain, pain and tingling and numbness in arms (more on the right) and muscle cramps in my legs, with pain on the inner part of both knees. I am also being followed for abdominal pain, diverticulosis, and undigested food shown on an EGD.
