Oxycontin and Depakene drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Oxycontin (oxycodone hydrochloride) and Depakene (valproic acid). Common drug interactions include deep vein thrombosis among females and interstitial lung disease among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Oxycontin and Depakene. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 66 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
