Probiotic and Xermelo drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Probiotic (bacillus coagulans) and Xermelo (telotristat etiprate). Common drug interactions include flatulence among females and decreased appetite among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Probiotic and Xermelo. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 14 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
