Divalproex and Claritin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Divalproex (divalproex sodium) and Claritin (loratadine). Common drug interactions include spinal disorder among females and seizure among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Divalproex and Claritin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 100 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
