Floxin and Metronidazole drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Floxin (ofloxacin) and Metronidazole (metronidazole). Common drug interactions include paranoia among females and dyspnoea among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Floxin and Metronidazole. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 27 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
