Abilify and Valcyte drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Abilify (aripiprazole) and Valcyte (valganciclovir hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include vomiting among females and completed suicide among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Abilify and Valcyte. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 13 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
