Yaz and Zopiclone drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Yaz (drospirenone; ethinyl estradiol) and Zopiclone (eszopiclone). Common drug interactions include hypogammaglobulinaemia among females and headache among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Yaz and Zopiclone. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 18 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
