Geodon and Fosamax drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Geodon (ziprasidone hydrochloride) and Fosamax (alendronate sodium). Common drug interactions include tenderness among females and activities of daily living impaired among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Geodon and Fosamax. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 92 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Geodon?
Geodon has active ingredients of ziprasidone hydrochloride. It is often used in bipolar disorder. eHealthMe is studying from 19,505 Geodon users. Check the latest studies of Geodon.
What is Fosamax?
