Voltaren and Timoptic drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Voltaren (diclofenac sodium) and Timoptic (timolol maleate). Common drug interactions include heart rate increased among females and decreased appetite among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Voltaren and Timoptic. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 32 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
