Zocor and Naprelan drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Zocor (simvastatin) and Naprelan (naproxen sodium). Common drug interactions include injection site reaction among females and diabetes mellitus among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Zocor and Naprelan. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 18 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

Zocor has active ingredients of simvastatin. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 86,545 Zocor users. Check the latest studies of Zocor.
What is Naprelan?
Naprelan has active ingredients of naproxen sodium. eHealthMe is studying from 731 Naprelan users. Check the latest studies of Naprelan.
18 people who take Zocor and Naprelan together, and have interactions are studied.
