Although vomiting is not noted as a side effect of gemfibrozil and pravasatin ... they can both cause indigestion and heartburn, which may have caused vomiting. OR the vomiting may just be an isolated incident. If vomiting persists then please see your doctor.
Please see the link below. There is potential for a serious interaction between gemfibrozil and pravastatin, so if you experience any other odd symptoms please see your doctor as soon as possible.
