Phenergan and Cefzil drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Phenergan (promethazine hydrochloride) and Cefzil (cefprozil). Common drug interactions include impaired gastric emptying among females and anhedonia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Phenergan and Cefzil. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 31 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
