Cotrim and Celebrex drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cotrim (sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim) and Celebrex (celecoxib). Common drug interactions include nodal arrhythmia among females and bone disorder among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cotrim and Celebrex. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 34 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
