Risperidone and Fintepla drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Risperidone (risperidone) and Fintepla (fenfluramine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include seizure among females and seizure among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Risperidone and Fintepla. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
