Naproxen and Movicol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Naproxen (naproxen) and Movicol (polyethylene glycol 3350). Common drug interactions include deep vein thrombosis among females and abdominal pain among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Naproxen and Movicol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 90 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
