Alrex and Simvastatin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Alrex (loteprednol etabonate) and Simvastatin (simvastatin). Common drug interactions include femur fracture among females and anxiety among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Alrex and Simvastatin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 27 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
