Slow-k and Cipro drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Slow-k (potassium chloride) and Cipro (ciprofloxacin hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include anaemia among females and blood glucose increased among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Slow-k and Cipro. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 14 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

What is Slow-k?

Slow-k has active ingredients of potassium chloride. It is often used in hypokalemia. eHealthMe is studying from 3,683 Slow-k users. Check the latest studies of Slow-k.

What is Cipro?

Cipro has active ingredients of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride. It is often used in urinary tract infection. eHealthMe is studying from 35,126 Cipro users. Check the latest studies of Cipro.
