Phenergan and Sinemet drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Phenergan (promethazine hydrochloride) and Sinemet (carbidopa; levodopa). Common drug interactions include anxiety among females and major depression among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Phenergan and Sinemet. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 96 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
