Enbrel and Theo-dur drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Enbrel (etanercept) and Theo-dur (theophylline). Common drug interactions include inflammation among females and aphasia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Enbrel and Theo-dur. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 26 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Enbrel?
Enbrel has active ingredients of etanercept. It is often used in rheumatoid arthritis. eHealthMe is studying from 664,678 Enbrel users. Check the latest studies of Enbrel.
What is Theo-dur?
Theo-dur has active ingredients of theophylline. It is often used in asthma. eHealthMe is studying from 4,451 Theo-dur users. Check the latest studies of Theo-dur.
26 people who take Enbrel and Theo-dur together, and have interactions are studied.
