Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pyridium (phenazopyridine hydrochloride) and Cefdinir (cefdinir). Common drug interactions include anxiety among females and chronic kidney disease among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pyridium and Cefdinir. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 19 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
