Macrodantin and Lanoxin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Macrodantin (nitrofurantoin, macrocrystalline) and Lanoxin (digoxin). Common drug interactions include cough among females and dyspnoea among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Macrodantin and Lanoxin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 33 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
