Septra and Se drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Septra (sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim) and Se (selenium). Common drug interactions include drug hypersensitivity among females and blood creatinine increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Septra and Se. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 13 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Septra?
Septra has active ingredients of sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim. It is often used in urinary tract infection. eHealthMe is studying from 10,280 Septra users. Check the latest studies of Septra.
What is Se?
Se has active ingredients of selenium. eHealthMe is studying from 5,604 Se users. Check the latest studies of Se.
13 people who take Septra and Se together, and have interactions are studied.

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim and selenium (the active ingredients of Septra and Se, respectively), and Septra and Se (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.
How to use the study?
