Cataflam and Altace drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cataflam (diclofenac potassium) and Altace (ramipril). Common drug interactions include electrocardiogram repolarisation abnormality among females and abdominal pain upper among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cataflam and Altace. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 11 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Cataflam?
Cataflam has active ingredients of diclofenac potassium. It is often used in pain. eHealthMe is studying from 1,851 Cataflam users. Check the latest studies of Cataflam.
What is Altace?
Altace has active ingredients of ramipril. It is often used in high blood pressure. eHealthMe is studying from 23,681 Altace users. Check the latest studies of Altace.
11 people who take Cataflam and Altace together, and have interactions are studied.
