Dexferrum and Gabapentin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Dexferrum (iron dextran) and Gabapentin (gabapentin). Common drug interactions include choking among females and nephrolithiasis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Dexferrum and Gabapentin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 11 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Dexferrum?
Dexferrum has active ingredients of iron dextran. It is often used in anemia. eHealthMe is studying from 716 Dexferrum users. Check the latest studies of Dexferrum.
What is Gabapentin?
Gabapentin has active ingredients of gabapentin. It is often used in neuralgia. eHealthMe is studying from 322,983 Gabapentin users. Check the latest studies of Gabapentin.
11 people who take Dexferrum and Gabapentin together, and have interactions are studied.
