Lamotrigine and Nuedexta drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lamotrigine (lamotrigine) and Nuedexta (dextromethorphan hydrobromide; quinidine sulfate). Common drug interactions include gestational diabetes among females and fall among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lamotrigine and Nuedexta. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 49 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
