Rimifon and Cellcept drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Rimifon (isoniazid) and Cellcept (mycophenolate mofetil). Common drug interactions include hepatocellular injury among females and hypomagnesaemia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Rimifon and Cellcept. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 55 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
