Garlic and Insulin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Garlic (allium sativum) and Insulin (insulin pork). Common drug interactions include chest pain among females and diabetic nephropathy among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Garlic and Insulin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 13 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
