Lyrica and Menest drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lyrica (pregabalin) and Menest (estrogens, esterified). Common drug interactions include somnolence among females and multi-organ failure among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lyrica and Menest. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 36 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Lyrica?
Lyrica has active ingredients of pregabalin. It is often used in fibromyalgia. eHealthMe is studying from 261,646 Lyrica users. Check the latest studies of Lyrica.
What is Menest?
Menest has active ingredients of estrogens, esterified. It is often used in hormone replacement therapy. eHealthMe is studying from 843 Menest users. Check the latest studies of Menest.
36 people who take Lyrica and Menest together, and have interactions are studied.
