Losartan and Minitran drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Losartan (losartan potassium) and Minitran (nitroglycerin). Common drug interactions include hypokalaemia among females and renal failure acute among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Losartan and Minitran. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 18 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Losartan?
Losartan has active ingredients of losartan potassium. It is often used in high blood pressure. eHealthMe is studying from 177,686 Losartan users. Check the latest studies of Losartan.
What is Minitran?
Minitran has active ingredients of nitroglycerin. eHealthMe is studying from 950 Minitran users. Check the latest studies of Minitran.
18 people who take Losartan and Minitran together, and have interactions are studied.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on losartan potassium and nitroglycerin (the active ingredients of Losartan and Minitran, respectively), and Losartan and Minitran (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.
