Casodex and Lopressor drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Casodex (bicalutamide) and Lopressor (metoprolol tartrate). Common drug interactions include pain among females and osteonecrosis of jaw among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Casodex and Lopressor. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 94 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
