Zetia and Actiq drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Zetia (ezetimibe) and Actiq (fentanyl citrate). Common drug interactions include sinusitis among females and drug ineffective among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Zetia and Actiq. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 16 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
