Duac and Tylenol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Duac (benzoyl peroxide; clindamycin phosphate) and Tylenol (acetaminophen). Common drug interactions include brain hypoxia among females and anxiety among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Duac and Tylenol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 14 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on benzoyl peroxide; clindamycin phosphate and acetaminophen (the active ingredients of Duac and Tylenol, respectively), and Duac and Tylenol (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.

How to use the study?
