Tresiba and Fentanyl drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Tresiba (insulin degludec) and Fentanyl (fentanyl citrate). Common drug interactions include hypoglycaemia among females and atrioventricular block complete among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Tresiba and Fentanyl. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 21 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
