Why this happens
Both atorvastatin and Royal Sun mushroom can affect liver enzymes. While atorvastatin is a well-known cause of rare liver side effects, Royal Sun contains compounds that have been linked to liver toxicity in some case studies. Taking them together may have an additive effect on liver stress.
What you should do
Use caution when combining these two. Before starting Royal Sun, you should speak with your doctor or pharmacist. If you decide to take both, watch out for signs of liver problems, such as yellowing of the eyes or skin (jaundice), dark urine, or pain in the upper right side of your stomach. Your doctor may want to perform routine blood tests to check your liver function.
