Imodium and Serevent drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Imodium (loperamide hydrochloride) and Serevent (salmeterol xinafoate). Common drug interactions include muscle spasms among females and chest pain among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Imodium and Serevent. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 67 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
