Defitelio and Ceftazidime drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Defitelio (defibrotide sodium) and Ceftazidime (ceftazidime). Common drug interactions include acute respiratory distress syndrome among females and coma among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Defitelio and Ceftazidime. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
