Prilosec and B6 drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Prilosec (omeprazole) and B6 (pyridoxine (vitamin b6)). Common drug interactions include full blood count decreased among females and blood iron increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Prilosec and B6. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 29 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on omeprazole and pyridoxine (vitamin b6) (the active ingredients of Prilosec and B6, respectively), and Prilosec and B6 (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.
