Ribavirin and Hydroxyurea drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Ribavirin (ribavirin) and Hydroxyurea (hydroxyurea). Common drug interactions include pancytopenia among females and parainfluenzae virus infection among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Ribavirin and Hydroxyurea. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 18 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
