Precose and Cymbalta drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Precose (acarbose) and Cymbalta (duloxetine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include respiratory failure among females and arthralgia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Precose and Cymbalta. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 27 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Precose?
Precose has active ingredients of acarbose. eHealthMe is studying from 1,189 Precose users. Check the latest studies of Precose.
What is Cymbalta?
Cymbalta has active ingredients of duloxetine hydrochloride. It is often used in depression. eHealthMe is studying from 154,973 Cymbalta users. Check the latest studies of Cymbalta.
27 people who take Precose and Cymbalta together, and have interactions are studied.
