Bactroban and Renagel drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Bactroban (mupirocin) and Renagel (sevelamer hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include cardio-respiratory arrest among females and hyperparathyroidism secondary among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Bactroban and Renagel. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 51 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
