Actos and Nevanac drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Actos (pioglitazone hydrochloride) and Nevanac (nepafenac). Common drug interactions include eye irritation among females and death among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Actos and Nevanac. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 12 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
