Both medicines are used to lower triglycerides and cholesterol in the blood and you are taking them correctly.
However this particular combination needs to be used cautiously, due to a serious potential drug interaction involving the kidneys and muscle toxicity.
If you develop any signs of muscle pain or weakness you should see your doctor.
