Megace and Detrol la drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Megace (megestrol acetate) and Detrol la (tolterodine tartrate). Common drug interactions include colon cancer among females and sepsis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Megace and Detrol la. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 22 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Megace?
Megace has active ingredients of megestrol acetate. It is often used in weight loss. eHealthMe is studying from 10,095 Megace users. Check the latest studies of Megace.
What is Detrol la?
Detrol la has active ingredients of tolterodine tartrate. It is often used in urge incontinence. eHealthMe is studying from 13,358 Detrol la users. Check the latest studies of Detrol la.
22 people who take Megace and Detrol la together, and have interactions are studied.
