Levothroid and Phentermine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Levothroid (levothyroxine sodium) and Phentermine (phentermine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include cardiovascular disorder among females and insomnia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Levothroid and Phentermine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 12 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
