Yasmin and Prograf drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Yasmin (drospirenone; ethinyl estradiol) and Prograf (tacrolimus). Common drug interactions include hypertension among females and local swelling among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Yasmin and Prograf. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 35 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
