Avandamet and Hydroxyzine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Avandamet (metformin hydrochloride; rosiglitazone maleate) and Hydroxyzine (hydroxyzine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include muscle spasms among females and chorea among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Avandamet and Hydroxyzine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 25 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
