Acth and Synthroid drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Acth (corticotropin) and Synthroid (levothyroxine sodium). Common drug interactions include feeling jittery among females and blood pressure increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Acth and Synthroid. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 93 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Acth?
Acth has active ingredients of corticotropin. eHealthMe is studying from 5,402 Acth users. Check the latest studies of Acth.
What is Synthroid?
Synthroid has active ingredients of levothyroxine sodium. It is often used in hypothyroidism. eHealthMe is studying from 249,198 Synthroid users. Check the latest studies of Synthroid.
93 people who take Acth and Synthroid together, and have interactions are studied.

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on corticotropin and levothyroxine sodium (the active ingredients of Acth and Synthroid, respectively), and Acth and Synthroid (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.
