Cellcept and Zanaflex drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cellcept (mycophenolate mofetil) and Zanaflex (tizanidine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include dehydration among females and cerebrovascular accident among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cellcept and Zanaflex. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 55 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
