Avonex and Movicol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Avonex (interferon beta 1a) and Movicol (polyethylene glycol 3350). Common drug interactions include foetal death among females.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Avonex and Movicol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 16 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.
