Micardis and Se drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Micardis (telmisartan) and Se (selenium). Common drug interactions include chest pain among females and abdominal pain upper among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Micardis and Se. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 24 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
