Pegasys and Cyclophosphamide drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pegasys (peginterferon alfa 2a) and Cyclophosphamide (cyclophosphamide). Common drug interactions include bone disorder among females and autoimmune neutropenia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pegasys and Cyclophosphamide. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 14 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Pegasys?
Pegasys has active ingredients of peginterferon alfa 2a. It is often used in hepatitis c. eHealthMe is studying from 57,446 Pegasys users. Check the latest studies of Pegasys.
What is Cyclophosphamide?
Cyclophosphamide has active ingredients of cyclophosphamide. It is often used in multiple myeloma. eHealthMe is studying from 185,240 Cyclophosphamide users. Check the latest studies of Cyclophosphamide.
14 people who take Pegasys and Cyclophosphamide together, and have interactions are studied.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on peginterferon alfa 2a and cyclophosphamide (the active ingredients of Pegasys and Cyclophosphamide, respectively), and Pegasys and Cyclophosphamide (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.
