Zyloprim and Epival drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Zyloprim (allopurinol) and Epival (divalproex sodium). Common drug interactions include mental impairment among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Zyloprim and Epival. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 32 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
