Actemra and Bumex drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Actemra (tocilizumab) and Bumex (bumetanide). Common drug interactions include upper limb fracture among females and angina pectoris among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Actemra and Bumex. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Actemra?
Actemra has active ingredients of tocilizumab. It is often used in rheumatoid arthritis. eHealthMe is studying from 102,759 Actemra users. Check the latest studies of Actemra.
What is Bumex?
Bumex has active ingredients of bumetanide. It is often used in swelling. eHealthMe is studying from 9,210 Bumex users. Check the latest studies of Bumex.
15 people who take Actemra and Bumex together, and have interactions are studied.
