Pennsaid and Lantus drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pennsaid (diclofenac sodium) and Lantus (insulin glargine recombinant). Common drug interactions include chronic kidney disease among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pennsaid and Lantus. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 29 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
