Prograf and Zyvox drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Prograf (tacrolimus) and Zyvox (linezolid). Common drug interactions include oedema peripheral among females and skin ulcer among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Prograf and Zyvox. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 74 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

What is Prograf?

How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on tacrolimus and linezolid (the active ingredients of Prograf and Zyvox, respectively), and Prograf and Zyvox (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.

How to use the study?
