Hc and Erythromycin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Hc (hydrocortisone) and Erythromycin (erythromycin). Common drug interactions include heart valve incompetence among females and neuropathy peripheral among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Hc and Erythromycin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

What is Hc?

Hc has active ingredients of hydrocortisone. It is often used in addison's disease. eHealthMe is studying from 1,369 Hc users. Check the latest studies of Hc.

What is Erythromycin?

Erythromycin has active ingredients of erythromycin. It is often used in acne. eHealthMe is studying from 12,563 Erythromycin users. Check the latest studies of Erythromycin.
