Septra and Velcade drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Septra (sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim) and Velcade (bortezomib). Common drug interactions include sensory disturbance among females and pyrexia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Septra and Velcade. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 68 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
