Naprosyn and Phenytoin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Naprosyn (naproxen) and Phenytoin (phenytoin). Common drug interactions include drug intolerance among females and adverse event among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Naprosyn and Phenytoin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Naprosyn?
Naprosyn has active ingredients of naproxen. It is often used in pain. eHealthMe is studying from 16,738 Naprosyn users. Check the latest studies of Naprosyn.
What is Phenytoin?
Phenytoin has active ingredients of phenytoin. It is often used in epilepsy. eHealthMe is studying from 15,753 Phenytoin users. Check the latest studies of Phenytoin.
eHealthMe: drug outcomes in the real world
eHealthMe runs one of the largest post-marketing drug safety studies in the world. We study millions of patients and 5,000 more each day. Our data-driven phase IV clinical trials have been referenced on 800+ peer-reviewed medical publications including The Lancet, Mayo Clinic Proceedings, and Nature.
