Anti-malaria tablets and heart meds

Does anyone have experience of taking Malarone (Atovaquone/Proguanil) together with the usual suite of post HA meds (Ticagrelor, Bisoprolol, Ramipril, Omeprazole, Atorvastatin)? I am headed for a malaria-risk region in a couple of weeks' time and would like to be sure there isn't any conflict.

My understanding is that this is the appropriate anti-malarial medication for those with heart disease. It might be useful to ring the BHF nurses as this will have come up before.
