Zyvox and Fungizone drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Zyvox (linezolid) and Fungizone (amphotericin b). Common drug interactions include leukoencephalopathy among females and septic shock among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Zyvox and Fungizone. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 20 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
