Emend and Prezista drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Emend (aprepitant) and Prezista (darunavir ethanolate). Common drug interactions include anuria among females and peripheral motor neuropathy among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Emend and Prezista. 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 Emend?

Emend has active ingredients of aprepitant. It is often used in nausea. eHealthMe is studying from 13,741 Emend users. Check the latest studies of Emend.

What is Prezista?

Prezista has active ingredients of darunavir ethanolate. It is often used in hiv infection. eHealthMe is studying from 12,363 Prezista users. Check the latest studies of Prezista.

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on aprepitant and darunavir ethanolate (the active ingredients of Emend and Prezista, respectively), and Emend and Prezista (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.
