Abraxane and Unasyn drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Abraxane (paclitaxel) and Unasyn (ampicillin sodium; sulbactam sodium). Common drug interactions include dry mouth among females and duodenal perforation among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Abraxane and Unasyn. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 34 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
