I take Lipitor and NUBEQA with no problems.

I have been taking simvastatin (10mg) + darolutamide (75% strength due to a persistently low ANC) for 15mos. Monthly blood tests so far have not shown any adverse effects that could be attributed to that combo.

Since darolutamide can increase the bioavailability of statins, it may be necessary to reduce the statin dose.

Lovastatin.

My cardiologist lowered my Rosuvastatin from 40 mg to 5 mg and added Zetia while I was on Nubeqa.

I take both drugs, but reduce the statin dose to 5mg. Apparently the Nubeqa can increase the strength of Rosuvostatin (Crestor) by 4 or 5 times

I take Simvastatin (10 mg) nightly and take Nubeqa (two tablets 300 mg each in the AM and two tablets in the PM - with food).

p.s. I think a dickhead named it Nubeqa instead of Nubeka (Couldn't figure out that a U follows a Q)!!!

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
