Pharmacokinetic data suggest a minor increase in statin exposure with coadministration of amlodipine and lovastatin or simvastatin, and combination therapy may be considered. There is no evidence of significant interaction when amlodipine is coadministered with other statins.
Examples of statins include atorvastatin (Lipitor) amlodipine (Norvasc); ranolazine (Ranexa). Another important drug interaction occurs between statins

Curiously, the adverse effect rate of the statin, it is always very similar to that of placebo. drug interactions e.g. amlodipine and statins.

Some medications may interact with statins by decreasing the effectiveness of the statin. Norvasc (amlodipine); Lanoxin (digoxin); Cardizem (
