Levocarnitine and Sertraline drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Levocarnitine (levocarnitine) and Sertraline (sertraline hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include headache among females and haematuria among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Levocarnitine and Sertraline. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 45 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
