Olmetec and Lactulose drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Olmetec (olmesartan medoxomil) and Lactulose (lactulose). Common drug interactions include hepatic failure among females and agranulocytosis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Olmetec and Lactulose. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 17 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Olmetec?
Olmetec has active ingredients of olmesartan medoxomil. It is often used in high blood pressure. eHealthMe is studying from 7,904 Olmetec users. Check the latest studies of Olmetec.
What is Lactulose?
Lactulose has active ingredients of lactulose. It is often used in constipation. eHealthMe is studying from 46,960 Lactulose users. Check the latest studies of Lactulose.
17 people who take Olmetec and Lactulose together, and have interactions are studied.
