Ornithine and Megestrol acetate drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Ornithine (ornithine) and Megestrol acetate (megestrol acetate). Common drug interactions include neutropenia among females and aspartate aminotransferase increased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Ornithine and Megestrol acetate. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 20 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Ornithine?
Ornithine has active ingredients of ornithine. eHealthMe is studying from 591 Ornithine users. Check the latest studies of Ornithine.
What is Megestrol acetate?
Megestrol acetate has active ingredients of megestrol acetate. It is often used in appetite - decreased. eHealthMe is studying from 5,427 Megestrol acetate users. Check the latest studies of Megestrol acetate.
20 people who take Ornithine and Megestrol acetate together, and have interactions are studied.

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on ornithine and megestrol acetate (the active ingredients of Ornithine and Megestrol acetate, respectively), and Ornithine and Megestrol acetate (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.
How to use the study?
DO NOT STOP MEDICATIONS without first consulting your doctor. If there are any serious or long term adverse effects discovered in the study, discuss the study with your doctor to ensure that proper medication management will be in place if applicable.
