Revlimid and Nitrofurantoin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Revlimid (lenalidomide) and Nitrofurantoin (nitrofurantoin, macrocrystalline). Common drug interactions include osteonecrosis among females and asthenia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Revlimid and Nitrofurantoin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 53 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
