Asacol and Cytomel drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Asacol (mesalamine) and Cytomel (liothyronine sodium). Common drug interactions include dehydration among females and dizziness postural among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Asacol and Cytomel. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 25 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Asacol?
Asacol has active ingredients of mesalamine. It is often used in ulcerative colitis. eHealthMe is studying from 20,618 Asacol users. Check the latest studies of Asacol.
What is Cytomel?
Cytomel has active ingredients of liothyronine sodium. It is often used in hypothyroidism. eHealthMe is studying from 7,595 Cytomel users. Check the latest studies of Cytomel.
25 people who take Asacol and Cytomel together, and have interactions are studied.
