Propulsid and Cordarone drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Propulsid (cisapride monohydrate) and Cordarone (amiodarone hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include supraventricular tachycardia among females and cardiac failure congestive among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Propulsid and Cordarone. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 44 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Propulsid?
Propulsid has active ingredients of cisapride monohydrate. It is often used in gastroesophageal reflux disease. eHealthMe is studying from 8,130 Propulsid users. Check the latest studies of Propulsid.
What is Cordarone?
Cordarone has active ingredients of amiodarone hydrochloride. It is often used in atrial fibrillation/flutter. eHealthMe is studying from 22,776 Cordarone users. Check the latest studies of Cordarone.
44 people who take Propulsid and Cordarone together, and have interactions are studied.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on cisapride monohydrate and amiodarone hydrochloride (the active ingredients of Propulsid and Cordarone, respectively), and Propulsid and Cordarone (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.
How to use the study?
