Zithromax and Definity drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Zithromax (azithromycin) and Definity (perflutren). Common drug interactions include dyspnoea among females and atrial fibrillation among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Zithromax and Definity. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 19 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
