Claritin and Micro-k drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Claritin (loratadine) and Micro-k (potassium chloride). Common drug interactions include gastrointestinal haemorrhage among females and anaemia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Claritin and Micro-k. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 36 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Claritin?
Claritin has active ingredients of loratadine. It is often used in allergies. eHealthMe is studying from 77,315 Claritin users. Check the latest studies of Claritin.
What is Micro-k?
Micro-k has active ingredients of potassium chloride. It is often used in hypokalemia. eHealthMe is studying from 1,895 Micro-k users. Check the latest studies of Micro-k.
36 people who take Claritin and Micro-k together, and have interactions are studied.
