Is it safe to take a blood pressure medication and cholesterol medicine at the same time such as Zocor with Lisinopril/HCTZ? I know BP meds are more effective taken during the mornings and cholestorol meds at night but I was wondering if it was ok to take them together.

    Cholesterol medication are known to cause myalgia if your vitamin D is low. 

    The two medications should be safe if your doctor has prescribed, but you can check their side effects seperately.
