Possible drug combination side effect ??

Hi

I commenced atorvastatin, ranexa and bisoprorol recently and have developed an itch / burning sensation on my upper back. It feels just like sunburn.

None of these drugs alone seem to report such a side effect. Has anyone else encountered such a side effect with this combination of drugs ?

It could be the start of shingles. Have a word with your GP.
