Serzone and Gemfibrozil drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Serzone (nefazodone hydrochloride) and Gemfibrozil (gemfibrozil). Common drug interactions include drug intolerance among females and diabetes mellitus among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Serzone and Gemfibrozil. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 28 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
