Simvastatin and Feldene drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Simvastatin (simvastatin) and Feldene (piroxicam). Common drug interactions include femur fracture among females and actinic keratosis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Simvastatin and Feldene. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 82 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Simvastatin?
Simvastatin has active ingredients of simvastatin. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 256,970 Simvastatin users. Check the latest studies of Simvastatin.
What is Feldene?
Feldene has active ingredients of piroxicam. It is often used in arthritis. eHealthMe is studying from 3,913 Feldene users. Check the latest studies of Feldene.
82 people who take Simvastatin and Feldene together, and have interactions are studied.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on simvastatin and piroxicam (the active ingredients of Simvastatin and Feldene, respectively), and Simvastatin and Feldene (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.
