Lyrica and Apokyn drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lyrica (pregabalin) and Apokyn (apomorphine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include somnolence among females and somnolence among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lyrica and Apokyn. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 53 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
