Adalat and Lescol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Adalat (nifedipine) and Lescol (fluvastatin sodium). Common drug interactions include syncope among females and blood creatinine increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Adalat and Lescol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 87 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Adalat?
Adalat has active ingredients of nifedipine. It is often used in high blood pressure. eHealthMe is studying from 20,940 Adalat users. Check the latest studies of Adalat.
What is Lescol?
Lescol has active ingredients of fluvastatin sodium. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 7,306 Lescol users. Check the latest studies of Lescol.
87 people who take Adalat and Lescol together, and have interactions are studied.
