Phentermine and Micro-k drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Phentermine (phentermine hydrochloride) and Micro-k (potassium chloride). Common drug interactions include pulmonary hypertension among females.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Phentermine and Micro-k. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 14 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Phentermine?
