Benicar and Antivert drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Benicar (olmesartan medoxomil) and Antivert (meclizine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include bone disorder among females and balance disorder among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Benicar and Antivert. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 71 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
