Cardura and Hctz drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cardura (doxazosin mesylate) and Hctz (hydrochlorothiazide). Common drug interactions include tendon rupture among females and chronic kidney disease among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cardura and Hctz. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 42 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
