Prilosec and Descovy drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Prilosec (omeprazole) and Descovy (emtricitabine; tenofovir alafenamide fumarate). Common drug interactions include anxiety among females and anhedonia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Prilosec and Descovy. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 46 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
