PubMed indexes 5 records that name Cholestyramine and Vitamin A together, either in the title or in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context.

It does not tell you whether to combine them.
Every statement below is attributed to a named, dated, linked source.

Search-based evidence indexes have real limits, and it is worth being explicit about them:
NutriStack is a free iPhone app for organising a supplement routine: what you take, when, and what the published record says about it. Its exploratory interaction checker covers Cholestyramine, Vitamin A, and several hundred other substances.
The checker is a research and organisation tool, not a clinical decision aid, and its per-pair assessments are excluded from search until they pass claim-level review.
