Rezulin and Motrin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Rezulin (troglitazone) and Motrin (ibuprofen). Common drug interactions include atrial fibrillation among females and blood urea increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Rezulin and Motrin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 76 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
