Lamotrigine and Avapro drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lamotrigine (lamotrigine) and Avapro (irbesartan). Common drug interactions include back injury among females and nausea among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lamotrigine and Avapro. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 11 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
