Methadose and Zoloft drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Methadose (methadone hydrochloride) and Zoloft (sertraline hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include premature delivery among females and overdose among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Methadose and Zoloft. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 24 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
