Insulin and Lescol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Insulin (insulin pork) and Lescol (fluvastatin sodium). Common drug interactions include hypotension among females and chest pain among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Insulin and Lescol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 29 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Insulin?
Insulin has active ingredients of insulin pork. It is often used in diabetes. eHealthMe is studying from 50,203 Insulin users. Check the latest studies of Insulin.
What is Lescol?
Lescol has active ingredients of fluvastatin sodium. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 7,306 Lescol users. Check the latest studies of Lescol.
29 people who take Insulin and Lescol together, and have interactions are studied.

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on insulin pork and fluvastatin sodium (the active ingredients of Insulin and Lescol, respectively), and Insulin and Lescol (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.
