Latanoprost and Phenytoin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Latanoprost (latanoprost) and Phenytoin (phenytoin). Common drug interactions include confusion among females and blood sodium increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Latanoprost and Phenytoin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 26 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
