Actos and Kytril drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Actos (pioglitazone hydrochloride) and Kytril (granisetron hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include mouth ulceration among females and sepsis among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Actos and Kytril. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 56 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
