Lactobacillus acidophilus and Celexa drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lactobacillus acidophilus (lactobacillus) and Celexa (citalopram hydrobromide). Common drug interactions include sepsis among females and arthralgia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lactobacillus acidophilus and Celexa. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 30 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
