Ditropan and Gaviscon drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Ditropan (oxybutynin chloride) and Gaviscon (aluminum hydroxide; magnesium trisilicate). Common drug interactions include purpura among females and pancytopenia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Ditropan and Gaviscon. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 64 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
