Exalgo and Pregabalin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Exalgo (hydromorphone hydrochloride) and Pregabalin (pregabalin). Common drug interactions include abdominal pain among females and hallucination, auditory among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Exalgo and Pregabalin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 14 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
