Tegretol and Lescol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Tegretol (carbamazepine) and Lescol (fluvastatin sodium). Common drug interactions include blood urine present among females and quadriplegia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Tegretol and Lescol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 42 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
