Pyridium and Modafinil drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pyridium (phenazopyridine hydrochloride) and Modafinil (modafinil). Common drug interactions include diarrhoea among females.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pyridium and Modafinil. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 42 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
