Levemir and Dexilant drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Levemir (insulin detemir recombinant) and Dexilant (dexlansoprazole). Common drug interactions include diarrhoea among females and arthralgia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Levemir and Dexilant. 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 Levemir?
Levemir has active ingredients of insulin detemir recombinant. It is often used in diabetes. eHealthMe is studying from 13,850 Levemir users. Check the latest studies of Levemir.
What is Dexilant?
Dexilant has active ingredients of dexlansoprazole. It is often used in gastroesophageal reflux disease. eHealthMe is studying from 57,103 Dexilant users. Check the latest studies of Dexilant.
29 people who take Levemir and Dexilant together, and have interactions are studied.
