Risperidone and Avodart drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Risperidone (risperidone) and Avodart (dutasteride). Common drug interactions include therapeutic response unexpected among females and confusional state among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Risperidone and Avodart. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 21 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
