Aricept and Prolia drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Aricept (donepezil hydrochloride) and Prolia (denosumab). Common drug interactions include urinary retention among females and nasopharyngitis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Aricept and Prolia. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 100 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
