Is It Safe To Take Lovastatin On Empty Stomach?
I m on lovastatin 10mg and I usually take it before going to bed with something to eat but it took it by mistake way too early. Is that okay for just this once? Will something happen to me? I was suppose to take metiformin 500mg around this time. It s 635 pm EST. Will everything be okay??

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your concern only certain drugs should be taken with the food or after the meal otherwise it is no problem if you have taken "Lovastatin" empty stomach this wont hurt, if you are taking metformin for the diabetes the it is to be taken with the food, hope this information helps you have nice day.
