Delsym and Clonidine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Delsym (dextromethorphan polistirex) and Clonidine (clonidine). Common drug interactions include back pain among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Delsym and Clonidine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 22 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Delsym?

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on dextromethorphan polistirex and clonidine (the active ingredients of Delsym and Clonidine, respectively), and Delsym and Clonidine (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.
How to use the study?
