Macrobid and Ursodiol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Macrobid (nitrofurantoin; nitrofurantoin, macrocrystalline) and Ursodiol (ursodiol). Common drug interactions include impaired gastric emptying among females and blood urine present among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Macrobid and Ursodiol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 26 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
