Motrin and Valcyte drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Motrin (ibuprofen) and Valcyte (valganciclovir hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include gastrointestinal haemorrhage among females and bronchiolitis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Motrin and Valcyte. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 13 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
