Betaseron and Lidocaine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Betaseron (interferon beta-1b) and Lidocaine (lidocaine). Common drug interactions include asthenia among females and bradycardia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Betaseron and Lidocaine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Betaseron?
Betaseron has active ingredients of interferon beta-1b. It is often used in multiple sclerosis. eHealthMe is studying from 26,886 Betaseron users. Check the latest studies of Betaseron.
What is Lidocaine?
Lidocaine has active ingredients of lidocaine. It is often used in pain. eHealthMe is studying from 27,555 Lidocaine users. Check the latest studies of Lidocaine.
15 people who take Betaseron and Lidocaine together, and have interactions are studied.
