Gaviscon and Thalidomide 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 Thalidomide (thalidomide). Common drug interactions include basal cell carcinoma among females and arterial thrombosis among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Gaviscon and Thalidomide. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 27 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
