Brief Answer:
Yes, they can!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

These two medications can be used together. They are commonly used when one fails to meet the treatment target for lowering blood cholesterol levels. This means that the other would most often come on board when one alone has failed to address the problem. If you tell me what the surrounding circumstances are, then I would be able to address specifically. If your doctor wants to start these medications at the same time, I will suggest he starts with one and only add another if one alone is not sufficient.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
