Flonase and Flector drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Flonase (fluticasone propionate) and Flector (diclofenac epolamine). Common drug interactions include abdominal pain upper among females and subdural haematoma among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Flonase and Flector. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 93 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
