Nitrostat and Septra drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Nitrostat (nitroglycerin) and Septra (sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim). Common drug interactions include malaise among females and asthenia among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Nitrostat and Septra. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 33 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
