Garlic and Atrovent drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Garlic (allium sativum) and Atrovent (ipratropium bromide). Common drug interactions include gastrooesophageal reflux disease among females and activities of daily living impaired among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Garlic and Atrovent. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 19 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
