Exforge hct and Zolpidem drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Exforge hct (amlodipine; hydrochlorothiazide; valsartan) and Zolpidem (zolpidem tartrate). Common drug interactions include pneumonia among females and presyncope among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Exforge hct and Zolpidem. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 20 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
