Synthroid and Nyquil drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Synthroid (levothyroxine sodium) and Nyquil (acetaminophen / dextromethorphan / doxylamine / pseudoephedrine). Common drug interactions include musculoskeletal stiffness among females and rash among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Synthroid and Nyquil. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 59 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
