Megestrol acetate and Demadex drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Megestrol acetate (megestrol acetate) and Demadex (torsemide). Common drug interactions include cardiac failure congestive among females.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Megestrol acetate and Demadex. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 17 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
