Vascepa and Genvoya drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Vascepa (icosapent ethyl) and Genvoya (cobicistat; elvitegravir; emtricitabine; tenofovir alafenamide fumarate). Common drug interactions include anhedonia among females and emotional distress among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Vascepa and Genvoya. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 22 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
