Sandostatin lar and Gaviscon drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Sandostatin lar (octreotide acetate) and Gaviscon (aluminum hydroxide; magnesium trisilicate). Common drug interactions include functional gastrointestinal disorder among females and death among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Sandostatin lar and Gaviscon. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 24 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
