Ultram and Pentasa drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Ultram (tramadol hydrochloride) and Pentasa (mesalamine). Common drug interactions include pharyngolaryngeal pain among females and renal failure among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Ultram and Pentasa. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 44 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
