Provera and Estinyl drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate) and Estinyl (ethinyl estradiol). Common drug interactions include breast cancer among females and alopecia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Provera and Estinyl. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 62 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
