Diphen and Temodar drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Diphen (diphenhydramine hydrochloride) and Temodar (temozolomide). Common drug interactions include spinal cord disorder among females and death among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Diphen and Temodar. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
