Prograf and Avalide drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Prograf (tacrolimus) and Avalide (hydrochlorothiazide; irbesartan). Common drug interactions include accidental exposure among females and nephrogenic systemic fibrosis among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Prograf and Avalide. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 11 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
