Profen and Gengraf drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Profen (ibuprofen) and Gengraf (cyclosporine). Common drug interactions include asthenia among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Profen and Gengraf. 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 Profen?
Profen has active ingredients of ibuprofen. It is often used in pain. eHealthMe is studying from 245,311 Profen users. Check the latest studies of Profen.
What is Gengraf?
Gengraf has active ingredients of cyclosporine. eHealthMe is studying from 960 Gengraf users. Check the latest studies of Gengraf.
14 people who take Profen and Gengraf together, and have interactions are studied.
