Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Videx (didanosine) and Vioxx (rofecoxib). Common drug interactions include pancreatitis among females and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Videx and Vioxx. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
