Provera and Xeloda drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate) and Xeloda (capecitabine). Common drug interactions include pain among females and angina unstable among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Provera and Xeloda. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 43 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Provera?
Provera has active ingredients of medroxyprogesterone acetate. It is often used in birth control. eHealthMe is studying from 54,943 Provera users. Check the latest studies of Provera.
What is Xeloda?
Xeloda has active ingredients of capecitabine. It is often used in colon cancer. eHealthMe is studying from 46,649 Xeloda users. Check the latest studies of Xeloda.
43 people who take Provera and Xeloda together, and have interactions are studied.
