Nuedexta and Sertraline drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Nuedexta (dextromethorphan hydrobromide; quinidine sulfate) and Sertraline (sertraline hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include drug effect decreased among females and fall among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Nuedexta and Sertraline. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 76 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
