Metronidazole is not directly contraindicated with statins, but caution is advised. Metronidazole can potentially increase the levels of certain statins, particularly simvastatin and atorvastatin, due to its effect on liver enzymes. Patients taking these medications should be monitored for signs of increased statin side effects, such as muscle pain or weakness. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
