Clolar and Ambisome drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Clolar (clofarabine) and Ambisome (amphotericin b). Common drug interactions include hallucination among females and aspergillosis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Clolar and Ambisome. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 19 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Clolar?
Clolar has active ingredients of clofarabine. eHealthMe is studying from 1,093 Clolar users. Check the latest studies of Clolar.
What is Ambisome?
Ambisome has active ingredients of amphotericin b. eHealthMe is studying from 7,934 Ambisome users. Check the latest studies of Ambisome.
19 people who take Clolar and Ambisome together, and have interactions are studied.

0-1:
n/a
2-9:

10-19:
- Weight decreased
- Acute graft versus host disease (acute complication following an allogeneic tissue/blood transplant)
- Alanine aminotransferase increased
- Alpha haemolytic streptococcal infection (infections with alpha-haemolytic strep bacteria are common; many strains live naturally in humans)
- Aspartate aminotransferase increased
- Aspergillosis (an infection caused by a fungus called aspergillus)
- Blood culture positive
- Blood disorder
- Bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (lung disorder caused by aspergillus fungi)
- Convulsion (muscles contract and relax rapidly and repeatedly, resulting in an uncontrolled shaking of the body)
20-29:
- Pancreatitis (inflammation of pancreas)
- Blood alkaline phosphatase increased
- Gamma-glutamyltransferase increased
- Hypocalcaemia (levels of calcium in blood serum are abnormally low)
- Lymphopenia (an abnormally low level of lymphocytes in the blood)
- Neutropenia (an abnormally low number of neutrophils)
- Sepsis (a severe blood infection that can lead to organ failure and death)
- Thrombocytopenia (decrease of platelets in blood)
- Abdominal distension
- Diarrhoea
30-39:
n/a
40-49:
n/a
50-59:
- Graft versus host disease in intestine (the donated bone marrow or stem cells view the recipient's body as foreign, and the donated cells/bone marrow attack the body and damages intestinal mucosal membrane)
- Proctalgia (pain in the rectum)
60+:
- Mental status changes (general changes in brain function, such as confusion, amnesia (memory loss), loss of alertness, loss of orientation)
- Aspergillosis (an infection caused by a fungus called aspergillus)
- Cardiac arrest
- Coagulopathy (blood's ability to clot is impaired)
- Depressed level of consciousness
- Diastolic dysfunction
- Drug toxicity
- Enterococcal infection
- Ileus paralytic (obstruction of the intestine due to paralysis of the intestinal muscles)
- Immunosuppression

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on clofarabine and amphotericin b (the active ingredients of Clolar and Ambisome, respectively), and Clolar and Ambisome (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.
How to use the study?
