Aleve and Gaviscon drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Aleve (naproxen sodium) and Gaviscon (aluminum hydroxide; magnesium trisilicate). Common drug interactions include urinary tract infection among females and neuropathy peripheral among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Aleve and Gaviscon. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 49 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
