Macrodantin and Diflucan drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Macrodantin (nitrofurantoin, macrocrystalline) and Diflucan (fluconazole). Common drug interactions include foot deformity among females and anaemia neonatal among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Macrodantin and Diflucan. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 84 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
