Avonex and Cyclophosphamide drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Avonex (interferon beta 1a) and Cyclophosphamide (cyclophosphamide). Common drug interactions include craniocerebral injury among females and pneumonia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Avonex and Cyclophosphamide. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 43 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Avonex?
Avonex has active ingredients of interferon beta 1a. It is often used in multiple sclerosis. eHealthMe is studying from 198,544 Avonex users. Check the latest studies of Avonex.
What is Cyclophosphamide?
Cyclophosphamide has active ingredients of cyclophosphamide. It is often used in multiple myeloma. eHealthMe is studying from 185,240 Cyclophosphamide users. Check the latest studies of Cyclophosphamide.
43 people who take Avonex and Cyclophosphamide together, and have interactions are studied.
