Bactrim and Memantine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim) and Memantine (memantine). Common drug interactions include hypoaesthesia among females and fatigue among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Bactrim and Memantine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 66 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
