Aloe vera and Methotrexate drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Aloe vera (aloe) and Methotrexate (methotrexate sodium). Common drug interactions include infusion site pruritus among females and nausea among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Aloe vera and Methotrexate. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 66 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
