Aricept and Gabitril drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Aricept (donepezil hydrochloride) and Gabitril (tiagabine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include convulsion among females and back pain among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Aricept and Gabitril. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 12 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
