Diphen and Anzemet drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Diphen (diphenhydramine hydrochloride) and Anzemet (dolasetron mesylate). Common drug interactions include neuropathy peripheral among females and death among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Diphen and Anzemet. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 65 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
