Oxbryta and Lactulose drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Oxbryta (voxelotor) and Lactulose (lactulose). Common drug interactions include abdominal discomfort among females and atelectasis among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Oxbryta and Lactulose. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 16 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 voxelotor and lactulose (the active ingredients of Oxbryta and Lactulose, respectively), and Oxbryta and Lactulose (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?
