I recently asked my consultant if I was ok taking vitamin d whilst taking Amlodipine and Clopidogrel and he assured me it was fine. I do take statins also, but only twice a week due to side effects.

Hi Superego, if it helps, I take the following prescription meds daily:-

Amlodipine 10mg,

Atorvastatin 40mg

Aspirin 75mg

and as I was Vitamin D deficient a while back according to a blood test, I take a 1000 IU Vit D supplement.

If you're at all worried, check with your pharmacist and/or GP but I haven't encountered any issue with taking the supplement.

Hope this helps

Of course, everything is fine if you take vitamin D. Vitamin D will never harm the body and any combination you make in vitamins is all right. Vitamin D has a significant role in the body that helps shape the bones and maintain their health. While we take vitamin D, we also take aspirin and many other vitamins, and I am healthy. Since the pandemic started, I started to keep my immunity high. I have been trying to consume as many vitamins as possible, but of course, it is crucial not to exceed the required concentration in the body.
