Altace and Clarithromycin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Altace (ramipril) and Clarithromycin (clarithromycin). Common drug interactions include blood pressure decreased among females and hyperlipidaemia among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Altace and Clarithromycin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 31 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

What is Altace?

Altace has active ingredients of ramipril. It is often used in high blood pressure. eHealthMe is studying from 23,681 Altace users. Check the latest studies of Altace.

What is Clarithromycin?

Clarithromycin has active ingredients of clarithromycin. It is often used in sinusitis. eHealthMe is studying from 45,044 Clarithromycin users. Check the latest studies of Clarithromycin.

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on ramipril and clarithromycin (the active ingredients of Altace and Clarithromycin, respectively), and Altace and Clarithromycin (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.
