Every ifosfamide product we track (1)

Same active ingredient — different manufacturer, form, price and FDA recall record. That last one is what our independent score measures.

Only one: Ifosfamide.

Combination products containing ifosfamide

A combination is a different drug — different dosing, different warnings. It is listed here so you can find it, not so you can substitute it.

How long ifosfamide keeps

The date on a sealed pack is not the only one: some ifosfamide labels start a second clock once the product is opened or mixed, as short as 24 hours.

What people report to the FDA about ifosfamide

The FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) collects reports from patients and clinicians. It holds 21,615 reports naming ifosfamide, and the FDA flagged 98% of those reports as serious. The effects reported most often — leaving out reports about overdose, misuse or the condition being treated, which dominate the raw list for common medicines:

  • febrile neutropenia2,779 reports
  • neutropenia1,929 reports
  • thrombocytopenia1,551 reports
  • anaemia1,261 reports
  • pyrexia1,003 reports
  • sepsis835 reports
  • infection807 reports
  • pancytopenia785 reports

Read these as a signal, not a rate. A report does not mean ifosfamide caused the effect — anyone can file one, and many describe people taking several medicines for several conditions. Crucially there is no denominator: FAERS does not record how many people took the drug, so these counts cannot be turned into “X% of patients” — a bigger number often just means a more widely used or more talked-about drug. Duplicates exist, and publicity drives reporting. For what is actually established, read the FDA label section above.

Frequently asked questions

Can you take ifosfamide with other medicines?

It depends on the medicine. We check it against the FDA labels rather than guessing: our interaction checker searches each drug's own label for the other and quotes what it says, naming the section it came from. Run ifosfamide against whatever else you take — and remember that a label not naming a drug is not the same as that combination being safe.

What forms does ifosfamide come in?

Across the brands we track, ifosfamide is currently marketed as injectable, per the FDA's National Drug Code Directory. Each form is dosed differently — follow the label for the exact product you were prescribed.

Is there a generic ifosfamide?

Yes. Our catalog lists 1 generic ifosfamide product alongside the brand versions. A generic has the same active ingredient and must meet the FDA's bioequivalence standard; it usually costs less. Ask your pharmacist which one your plan covers.
