Apidra and Ultram drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Apidra (insulin glulisine recombinant) and Ultram (tramadol hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include thyroid mass among females and foot deformity among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Apidra and Ultram. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 22 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
