Cortisone acetate and Lexapro drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cortisone acetate (cortisone acetate) and Lexapro (escitalopram oxalate). Common drug interactions include sinusitis among females and asthenia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cortisone acetate and Lexapro. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 69 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
