Lovenox and Optimark drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Lovenox (enoxaparin sodium) and Optimark (gadoversetamide). Common drug interactions include joint stiffness among females and nephrogenic systemic fibrosis among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Lovenox and Optimark. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 42 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on enoxaparin sodium and gadoversetamide (the active ingredients of Lovenox and Optimark, respectively), and Lovenox and Optimark (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.
