Micardis and Nitrofurantoin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Micardis (telmisartan) and Nitrofurantoin (nitrofurantoin, macrocrystalline). Common drug interactions include pain among females.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Micardis and Nitrofurantoin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 20 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
