Lipoic acid and Pepcid ac drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lipoic acid (alpha - lipoic acid) and Pepcid ac (famotidine). Common drug interactions include arthralgia among females.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lipoic acid and Pepcid ac. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 13 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
