Novolog and Zantac 150 drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Novolog (insulin aspart recombinant) and Zantac 150 (ranitidine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include kidney infection among females and chronic kidney disease among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Novolog and Zantac 150. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 55 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
