Can I take Colecalciferol and Tizanidine together?

Why this happens

Colecalciferol (Vitamin D3) is a fat-soluble vitamin processed primarily by the liver and kidneys to help the body absorb calcium. Tizanidine is a muscle relaxant that works on the central nervous system and is mainly broken down by a specific liver enzyme (CYP1A2). Because they use different pathways in the body and have different targets, they do not interfere with each other's effectiveness or safety.

What you should do

You can continue to take both medications as prescribed by your doctor. As with any medication, if you notice any unusual side effects, you should mention them to your healthcare provider.
