Excedrin and Cleocin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Excedrin (acetaminophen; aspirin; caffeine) and Cleocin (clindamycin phosphate). Common drug interactions include chills among females and gastrooesophageal reflux disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Excedrin and Cleocin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
