Rozerem and Yaz drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Rozerem (ramelteon) and Yaz (drospirenone; ethinyl estradiol). Common drug interactions include electrocardiogram st segment elevation among females and balance disorder among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Rozerem and Yaz. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 48 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
