Fycompa and Divalproex drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Fycompa (perampanel) and Divalproex (divalproex sodium). Common drug interactions include balance disorder among females and seizure among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Fycompa and Divalproex. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 38 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
