Verapamil hcl and Levaquin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Verapamil hcl (verapamil hydrochloride) and Levaquin (levofloxacin). Common drug interactions include atrial fibrillation among females and cardiomegaly among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Verapamil hcl and Levaquin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
