Neupogen and Diverticulitis - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Diverticulitis is reported as a side effect among people who take Neupogen (filgrastim), especially for people who are female, 60+ old, also take Zometa, and have Multiple myeloma.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Diverticulitis when taking Neupogen. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 23,793 people who have side effects when taking Neupogen from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
