Uloric and Vytorin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Uloric (febuxostat) and Vytorin (ezetimibe; simvastatin). Common drug interactions include myocardial infarction among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Uloric and Vytorin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 41 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Uloric?
Uloric has active ingredients of febuxostat. It is often used in gout. eHealthMe is studying from 8,067 Uloric users. Check the latest studies of Uloric.
What is Vytorin?
Vytorin has active ingredients of ezetimibe; simvastatin. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 20,084 Vytorin users. Check the latest studies of Vytorin.
41 people who take Uloric and Vytorin together, and have interactions are studied.
