Augmentin and Potassium citrate drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Augmentin (amoxicillin; clavulanate potassium) and Potassium citrate (potassium citrate). Common drug interactions include fatigue among females and retinal detachment among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Augmentin and Potassium citrate. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 38 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
