Maxalt and Geodon drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Maxalt (rizatriptan benzoate) and Geodon (ziprasidone hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include bladder pain among females and serotonin syndrome among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Maxalt and Geodon. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 69 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
