Lortab and Rezulin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lortab (acetaminophen; hydrocodone bitartrate) and Rezulin (troglitazone). Common drug interactions include depressed level of consciousness among females and cardiac failure congestive among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lortab and Rezulin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 25 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
