Januvia and Sirolimus drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Januvia (sitagliptin phosphate) and Sirolimus (sirolimus). Common drug interactions include melas syndrome among females and interstitial lung disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Januvia and Sirolimus. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 24 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Januvia?
Januvia has active ingredients of sitagliptin phosphate. It is often used in diabetes. eHealthMe is studying from 72,818 Januvia users. Check the latest studies of Januvia.
