Psyllium and Topamax drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Psyllium (blond psyllium) and Topamax (topiramate). Common drug interactions include intervertebral disc disorder among females and intervertebral disc protrusion among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Psyllium and Topamax. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 32 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
