What Are The Side Effects Of Taking Low Dose Aspirin In Conjunction With Pravastatin And Taking Fish Oil And Flax Oil?

>If so, I am interested to know if there's a negative consequence when taking low dose Aspirin in conjunction with Pravastatin, and also taking Fish Oil and Flax Seed Oil? I take supplements twice a day and am wondering when/how take them w/ my Rx for Pravastatin.

hi,
side effects are not constant and vary from person to person.
In general, asprin can cause gastric upset and bloating, worst case bleeding from the mucosa of stomach.
Pravastatin can cause muscle pains and fatigue, worst case severe muscle breakdown and kidney failure.
Other two drugs are generally tolerated, with minor side effects like nausea and diarrhea.
Hope this helped.
