Keflex and Leukine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Keflex (cephalexin) and Leukine (sargramostim). Common drug interactions include amnesia among females and anxiety among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Keflex and Leukine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 20 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
