Azilect and Zolpidem drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Azilect (rasagiline mesylate) and Zolpidem (zolpidem tartrate). Common drug interactions include back pain among females and dyskinesia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Azilect and Zolpidem. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 56 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Azilect?
Azilect has active ingredients of rasagiline mesylate. It is often used in parkinson's disease. eHealthMe is studying from 8,622 Azilect users. Check the latest studies of Azilect.
What is Zolpidem?
Zolpidem has active ingredients of zolpidem tartrate. It is often used in insomnia. eHealthMe is studying from 92,695 Zolpidem users. Check the latest studies of Zolpidem.
56 people who take Azilect and Zolpidem together, and have interactions are studied.
