Glimepiride and Metaxalone drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Glimepiride (glimepiride) and Metaxalone (metaxalone). Common drug interactions include tubulointerstitial nephritis among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Glimepiride and Metaxalone. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 57 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
