Pomalyst and Bendamustine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Pomalyst (pomalidomide) and Bendamustine (bendamustine). Common drug interactions include acute respiratory failure among females and neutrophil count decreased among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Pomalyst and Bendamustine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 22 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
