Effexor and Fentora drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Effexor (venlafaxine hydrochloride) and Fentora (fentanyl citrate). Common drug interactions include dystrophic calcification among females and alanine aminotransferase increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Effexor and Fentora. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
