Can I take Isosorbide mononitrate/carmil/monomil and Vitamin d together?

Why this happens

These two substances work in completely different ways in the body. Isosorbide mononitrate relaxes the blood vessels to improve blood flow to the heart, while Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and maintain bone health. They do not interfere with each other's absorption, breakdown, or effects.

What you should do

You can safely take these two medications together. It is usually best to take your heart medication at the same time each day as prescribed by your doctor. If you are taking very high doses of Vitamin D (prescribed for a deficiency), your doctor may monitor your calcium levels, but this is standard practice and not caused by the heart medication.
