Pemetrexed and Cyclophosphamide drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pemetrexed (pemetrexed) and Cyclophosphamide (cyclophosphamide). Common drug interactions include osteonecrosis of jaw among females and respiratory failure among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pemetrexed and Cyclophosphamide. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 73 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
