Truvada and Amaryl drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Truvada (emtricitabine; tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) and Amaryl (glimepiride). Common drug interactions include anaemia among females and varices oesophageal among males.

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