Why this happens
Atorvastatin and losartan are processed by different pathways in the liver and do not interfere with how the body absorbs or removes each other. They also work on different systems (cholesterol vs. blood pressure) without causing harmful additive effects.
What you should do
You can safely take these medicines together as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually best to take them at the same time each day to help you remember.

Patient picks for Drug interactions
Traitement et médicaments
Can I take Esomeprazole and Trazodone together?
Esomeprazole may reduce the amount of trazodone that your body absorbs. This could potentially make trazodone less effective at treating your symptoms (such as depression or sleep issues). Additionally, both medications can rarely affect the electrical activity of your heart, though this risk is generally low.
