Thorazine and Pepcid drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Thorazine (chlorpromazine hydrochloride) and Pepcid (famotidine). Common drug interactions include fall among females and pruritus among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Thorazine and Pepcid. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 47 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
