Divalproex and Erythromycin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Divalproex (divalproex sodium) and Erythromycin (erythromycin). Common drug interactions include pulmonary embolism among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Divalproex and Erythromycin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 26 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
