Cephalexin and Vimovo drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cephalexin (cephalexin) and Vimovo (esomeprazole magnesium; naproxen). Common drug interactions include chronic kidney disease among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cephalexin and Vimovo. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 87 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

Cephalexin has active ingredients of cephalexin. It is often used in infection. eHealthMe is studying from 30,580 Cephalexin users. Check the latest studies of Cephalexin.
What is Vimovo?
Vimovo has active ingredients of esomeprazole magnesium; naproxen. It is often used in osteoarthritis. eHealthMe is studying from 9,608 Vimovo users. Check the latest studies of Vimovo.
87 people who take Cephalexin and Vimovo together, and have interactions are studied.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on cephalexin and esomeprazole magnesium; naproxen (the active ingredients of Cephalexin and Vimovo, respectively), and Cephalexin and Vimovo (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.
