Naproxen and Tobradex drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Naproxen (naproxen) and Tobradex (dexamethasone; tobramycin). Common drug interactions include joint swelling among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Naproxen and Tobradex. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 50 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

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. Tools to study our phase IV findings are available to the public, anonymous and free >>>.
50 people who take Naproxen and Tobradex together, and have interactions are studied.
