Zosyn and Lovaza drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Zosyn (piperacillin sodium; tazobactam sodium) and Lovaza (omega-3-acid ethyl esters). Common drug interactions include mobility decreased among females and skin ulcer among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Zosyn and Lovaza. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 29 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Zosyn?
Zosyn has active ingredients of piperacillin sodium; tazobactam sodium. It is often used in pneumonia. eHealthMe is studying from 10,236 Zosyn users. Check the latest studies of Zosyn.
What is Lovaza?
Lovaza has active ingredients of omega-3-acid ethyl esters. It is often used in high blood cholesterol. eHealthMe is studying from 17,340 Lovaza users. Check the latest studies of Lovaza.
29 people who take Zosyn and Lovaza together, and have interactions are studied.

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on piperacillin sodium; tazobactam sodium and omega-3-acid ethyl esters (the active ingredients of Zosyn and Lovaza, respectively), and Zosyn and Lovaza (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.
