Rythmol and Tagamet drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Rythmol (propafenone hydrochloride) and Tagamet (cimetidine). Common drug interactions include transient ischaemic attack among females and burning sensation among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Rythmol and Tagamet. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
