Aleve and Ginger drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Aleve (naproxen sodium) and Ginger (ginger). Common drug interactions include pulmonary fibrosis among females and anaemia among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Aleve and Ginger. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 51 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
