Xifaxan and Versed drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Xifaxan (rifaximin) and Versed (midazolam hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include clavicle fracture among females and anxiety among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Xifaxan and Versed. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 17 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

What is Xifaxan?

Xifaxan has active ingredients of rifaximin. It is often used in irritable bowel syndrome. eHealthMe is studying from 16,609 Xifaxan users. Check the latest studies of Xifaxan.

What is Versed?

Versed has active ingredients of midazolam hydrochloride. It is often used in sedation during medical procedure. eHealthMe is studying from 6,869 Versed users. Check the latest studies of Versed.
