Azopt and Sandostatin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Azopt (brinzolamide) and Sandostatin (octreotide acetate). Common drug interactions include cardio-respiratory arrest among females and anaemia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Azopt and Sandostatin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Azopt?
Azopt has active ingredients of brinzolamide. It is often used in glaucoma. eHealthMe is studying from 8,058 Azopt users. Check the latest studies of Azopt.
What is Sandostatin?
Sandostatin has active ingredients of octreotide acetate. It is often used in acromegaly. eHealthMe is studying from 46,793 Sandostatin users. Check the latest studies of Sandostatin.
23 people who take Azopt and Sandostatin together, and have interactions are studied.
