Aranesp and Acitretin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Aranesp (darbepoetin alfa) and Acitretin (acitretin). Common drug interactions include aplasia pure red cell among females and blood pressure increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Aranesp and Acitretin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 46 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
