Prednisone and Folotyn drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Prednisone (prednisone) and Folotyn (pralatrexate). Common drug interactions include cellulitis among females and anaemia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Prednisone and Folotyn. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 12 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Prednisone?
Prednisone has active ingredients of prednisone. It is often used in rheumatoid arthritis. eHealthMe is studying from 636,827 Prednisone users. Check the latest studies of Prednisone.
What is Folotyn?
Folotyn has active ingredients of pralatrexate. eHealthMe is studying from 522 Folotyn users. Check the latest studies of Folotyn.
12 people who take Prednisone and Folotyn together, and have interactions are studied.
