Activase and Insulin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Activase (alteplase) and Insulin (insulin pork). Common drug interactions include gastrointestinal haemorrhage among females and chest pain among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Activase and Insulin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 34 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on alteplase and insulin pork (the active ingredients of Activase and Insulin, respectively), and Activase and Insulin (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.

How to use the study?

DO NOT STOP MEDICATIONS without first consulting your doctor. If there are any serious or long term adverse effects discovered in the study, discuss the study with your doctor to ensure that proper medication management will be in place if applicable.
