Lamotrigine and Coreg drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lamotrigine (lamotrigine) and Coreg (carvedilol). Common drug interactions include anxiety among females and disturbance in attention among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lamotrigine and Coreg. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 88 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
