Peridex and Bactrim ds drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Peridex (chlorhexidine gluconate) and Bactrim ds (sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim). Common drug interactions include anxiety among females and dyspnoea among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Peridex and Bactrim ds. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 85 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
