Trimethoprim and Melatonin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Trimethoprim (trimethoprim) and Melatonin (melatonin). Common drug interactions include pneumonia among females and febrile neutropenia among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Trimethoprim and Melatonin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 81 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
