What Causes Blood In Stools While On Lovastatin And Gemfibrozil?
Hi, I am taking fluconazole 200mg to treat a fungus on my index finger I am also taking my daily medicines doses, metoprlol 50mg lovastatin 40 , gemfibrozil 600 mg. I also noticed some blood in my toilet after stool. do you think there an interaction between all theses medicines ?
hello. I don't think this is side effect of these medications and this is more likely to be some anorectal issue such as hemorrhoids or fisure and sometimes polyps or tumors of colon. It would be good to do colonoscopy to rule this out. Wish you a good health. Regards
