Dexacort and Zofran drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Dexacort (dexamethasone sodium phosphate) and Zofran (ondansetron hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include febrile neutropenia among females and duodenal ulcer haemorrhage among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Dexacort and Zofran. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
