Lipitor and Urecholine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lipitor (atorvastatin calcium) and Urecholine (bethanechol chloride). Common drug interactions include viral infection among females and cerebrovascular accident among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lipitor and Urecholine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 48 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Lipitor?
Lipitor has active ingredients of atorvastatin calcium. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 259,050 Lipitor users. Check the latest studies of Lipitor.
What is Urecholine?
Urecholine has active ingredients of bethanechol chloride. eHealthMe is studying from 555 Urecholine users. Check the latest studies of Urecholine.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on atorvastatin calcium and bethanechol chloride (the active ingredients of Lipitor and Urecholine, respectively), and Lipitor and Urecholine (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?
