Losartan and Qualaquin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Losartan (losartan potassium) and Qualaquin (quinine sulfate). Common drug interactions include renal failure among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Losartan and Qualaquin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 12 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 Qualaquin?
Qualaquin has active ingredients of quinine sulfate. It is often used in leg pain. eHealthMe is studying from 281 Qualaquin users. Check the latest studies of Qualaquin.
12 people who take Losartan and Qualaquin together, and have interactions are studied.
