Azor and Simcor drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Azor (amlodipine besylate; olmesartan medoxomil) and Simcor (niacin; simvastatin). Common drug interactions include flushing among females and flushing among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Azor and Simcor. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 48 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
