Risperdal and Folvite drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Risperdal (risperidone) and Folvite (folic acid). Common drug interactions include death among females and confusional state among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Risperdal and Folvite. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 19 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Risperdal?
Risperdal has active ingredients of risperidone. It is often used in bipolar disorder. eHealthMe is studying from 127,729 Risperdal users. Check the latest studies of Risperdal.
What is Folvite?
Folvite has active ingredients of folic acid. eHealthMe is studying from 2,529 Folvite users. Check the latest studies of Folvite.
19 people who take Risperdal and Folvite together, and have interactions are studied.
