Actiq and Singulair drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Actiq (fentanyl citrate) and Singulair (montelukast sodium). Common drug interactions include vascular rupture among females and pneumonia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Actiq and Singulair. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 43 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
