Simvastatin and Paracaine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Simvastatin (simvastatin) and Paracaine (proparacaine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include choroidal neovascularisation among females and retinal exudates among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Simvastatin and Paracaine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

Simvastatin has active ingredients of simvastatin. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 256,969 Simvastatin users. Check the latest studies of Simvastatin.
What is Paracaine?
Paracaine has active ingredients of proparacaine hydrochloride. eHealthMe is studying from 673 Paracaine users. Check the latest studies of Paracaine.
23 people who take Simvastatin and Paracaine together, and have interactions are studied.
