Amphotericin b and Myelosuppression - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Myelosuppression is reported as a side effect among people who take Amphotericin b (amphotericin b), especially for people who are male, 60+ old, have been taking the drug for < 1 month also take Cytarabine, and have Acute lymphocytic leukemia (all).

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Myelosuppression when taking Amphotericin b. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 16,256 people who have side effects when taking Amphotericin b from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
