Truvada and Lortab 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 Lortab (acetaminophen; hydrocodone bitartrate). Common drug interactions include abortion spontaneous among females and anhedonia among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Truvada and Lortab. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 51 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
