Deltasone and Merrem drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Deltasone (prednisone) and Merrem (meropenem). Common drug interactions include white blood cell count decreased among females and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Deltasone and Merrem. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 12 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on prednisone and meropenem (the active ingredients of Deltasone and Merrem, respectively), and Deltasone and Merrem (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.
