Gaviscon and Sennosides drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Gaviscon (aluminum hydroxide; magnesium trisilicate) and Sennosides (senna). Common drug interactions include angioedema among females and splenic infarction among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Gaviscon and Sennosides. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 31 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
