Catapres and Thalidomide drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Catapres (clonidine hydrochloride) and Thalidomide (thalidomide). Common drug interactions include nausea among females and myelodysplastic syndrome among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Catapres and Thalidomide. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 43 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
