Cardura and Valacyclovir drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cardura (doxazosin mesylate) and Valacyclovir (valacyclovir hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include anaemia among females and respiratory failure among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cardura and Valacyclovir. 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 Cardura?
Cardura has active ingredients of doxazosin mesylate. It is often used in high blood pressure. eHealthMe is studying from 20,379 Cardura users. Check the latest studies of Cardura.
What is Valacyclovir?
Valacyclovir has active ingredients of valacyclovir hydrochloride. It is often used in genital herpes. eHealthMe is studying from 42,107 Valacyclovir users. Check the latest studies of Valacyclovir.
eHealthMe: drug outcomes in the real world
eHealthMe runs one of the largest post-marketing drug safety studies in the world. We study millions of patients and 5,000 more each day.
