Humalog and Chromium drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Humalog (insulin lispro recombinant) and Chromium (chromium). Common drug interactions include blood glucose increased among females and blood glucose increased among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Humalog and Chromium. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 78 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

What is Humalog?

Humalog has active ingredients of insulin lispro recombinant. It is often used in diabetes. eHealthMe is studying from 137,127 Humalog users. Check the latest studies of Humalog.

What is Chromium?

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on insulin lispro recombinant and chromium (the active ingredients of Humalog and Chromium, respectively), and Humalog and Chromium (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.

How to use the study?
