Methimazole and Naproxen drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Methimazole (methimazole) and Naproxen (naproxen). Common drug interactions include fracture among females and renal impairment among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Methimazole and Naproxen. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 44 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Methimazole?
