Cephalexin and Renagel drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cephalexin (cephalexin) and Renagel (sevelamer hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include atrial fibrillation among females and pain among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cephalexin and Renagel. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 83 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
