Avastin and Vimpat drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Avastin (bevacizumab) and Vimpat (lacosamide). Common drug interactions include brain neoplasm malignant among females and hemiparesis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Avastin and Vimpat. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 89 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
