Tylenol w/ codeine and Zelnorm drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Tylenol w/ codeine (acetaminophen; codeine phosphate) and Zelnorm (tegaserod maleate). Common drug interactions include coronary artery disease among females and abdominal discomfort among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Tylenol w/ codeine and Zelnorm. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 11 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on acetaminophen; codeine phosphate and tegaserod maleate (the active ingredients of Tylenol w/ codeine and Zelnorm, respectively), and Tylenol w/ codeine and Zelnorm (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?
