Captopril and Gaviscon drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Captopril (captopril) and Gaviscon (aluminum hydroxide; magnesium trisilicate). Common drug interactions include chronic kidney disease among females and asthma among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Captopril and Gaviscon. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 30 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
