Ambien and Percodan drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Ambien (zolpidem tartrate) and Percodan (aspirin; oxycodone hydrochloride; oxycodone terephthalate). Common drug interactions include fatigue among females and bone disorder among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Ambien and Percodan. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 39 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
