Tricor and Propulsid drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Tricor (fenofibrate) and Propulsid (cisapride monohydrate). Common drug interactions include humerus fracture among females and dehydration among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Tricor and Propulsid. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 26 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

What is Tricor?

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on fenofibrate and cisapride monohydrate (the active ingredients of Tricor and Propulsid, respectively), and Tricor and Propulsid (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.

How to use the study?
