Lovaza and Simponi drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lovaza (omega-3-acid ethyl esters) and Simponi (golimumab). Common drug interactions include body mass index increased among females and drug ineffective among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lovaza and Simponi. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 24 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Lovaza?
Lovaza has active ingredients of omega-3-acid ethyl esters. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 17,340 Lovaza users. Check the latest studies of Lovaza.
What is Simponi?
Simponi has active ingredients of golimumab. It is often used in rheumatoid arthritis. eHealthMe is studying from 86,328 Simponi users. Check the latest studies of Simponi.
24 people who take Lovaza and Simponi together, and have interactions are studied.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on omega-3-acid ethyl esters and golimumab (the active ingredients of Lovaza and Simponi, respectively), and Lovaza and Simponi (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.
