Infed and Sudafed drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Infed (iron dextran) and Sudafed (pseudoephedrine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include infusion site pruritus among females.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Infed and Sudafed. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 14 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Infed?
Infed has active ingredients of iron dextran. It is often used in anemia. eHealthMe is studying from 1,105 Infed users. Check the latest studies of Infed.
What is Sudafed?
Sudafed has active ingredients of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride. It is often used in nasal congestion. eHealthMe is studying from 12,944 Sudafed users. Check the latest studies of Sudafed.
14 people who take Infed and Sudafed together, and have interactions are studied.
