Glipizide and Advicor drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Glipizide (glipizide) and Advicor (lovastatin; niacin). Common drug interactions include alopecia among females and anxiety among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Glipizide and Advicor. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 31 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Glipizide?
Glipizide has active ingredients of glipizide. It is often used in diabetes. eHealthMe is studying from 64,852 Glipizide users. Check the latest studies of Glipizide.
What is Advicor?
Advicor has active ingredients of lovastatin; niacin. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 1,153 Advicor users. Check the latest studies of Advicor.
31 people who take Glipizide and Advicor together, and have interactions are studied.
