Aptivus and Viracept drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Aptivus (tipranavir) and Viracept (nelfinavir mesylate). Common drug interactions include drug resistance among females and emotional distress among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Aptivus and Viracept. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 42 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
