Pennsaid and Hydroxyzine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pennsaid (diclofenac sodium) and Hydroxyzine (hydroxyzine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include weight decreased among females and cerebrovascular accident among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pennsaid and Hydroxyzine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 40 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
