Provera and Emla drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate) and Emla (lidocaine; prilocaine). Common drug interactions include migraine among females.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Provera and Emla. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 24 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
