Cardizem cd and Amaryl drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cardizem cd (diltiazem hydrochloride) and Amaryl (glimepiride). Common drug interactions include oedema peripheral among females and cardiac arrest among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cardizem cd and Amaryl. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 96 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
