Zonisamide and Zyprexa drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Zonisamide (zonisamide) and Zyprexa (olanzapine). Common drug interactions include ear infection among females and aggression among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Zonisamide and Zyprexa. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 43 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
