hydroxyurea and Pulmonary Fibrosis

hydroxyurea has been researched along with Pulmonary Fibrosis in 3 studies

Pulmonary Fibrosis: A process in which normal lung tissues are progressively replaced by FIBROBLASTS and COLLAGEN causing an irreversible loss of the ability to transfer oxygen into the bloodstream via PULMONARY ALVEOLI. Patients show progressive DYSPNEA finally resulting in death.
