Benicar hct and Ergocalciferol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Benicar hct (hydrochlorothiazide; olmesartan medoxomil) and Ergocalciferol (ergocalciferol). Common drug interactions include lower limb fracture among females and dizziness among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Benicar hct and Ergocalciferol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 30 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
