Megace and Elocon drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Megace (megestrol acetate) and Elocon (mometasone furoate). Common drug interactions include visual impairment among females and ileus paralytic among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Megace and Elocon. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 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 Elocon?
Elocon has active ingredients of mometasone furoate. It is often used in eczema. eHealthMe is studying from 2,019 Elocon users. Check the latest studies of Elocon.
15 people who take Megace and Elocon together, and have interactions are studied.
