Levaquin and L-lysine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Levaquin (levofloxacin) and L-lysine (lysine). Common drug interactions include asthma among females and cardiac arrest among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Levaquin and L-lysine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Levaquin?
Levaquin has active ingredients of levofloxacin. It is often used in sinusitis. eHealthMe is studying from 56,638 Levaquin users. Check the latest studies of Levaquin.
What is L-lysine?
L-lysine has active ingredients of lysine. It is often used in herpes labialis (oral herpes simplex). eHealthMe is studying from 1,560 L-lysine users. Check the latest studies of L-lysine.
23 people who take Levaquin and L-lysine together, and have interactions are studied.
