Sumatriptan and Esgic drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Sumatriptan (sumatriptan succinate) and Esgic (acetaminophen; butalbital; caffeine). Common drug interactions include dehydration among females and angioneurotic oedema among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Sumatriptan and Esgic. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 13 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
