Ceftin and Gentamicin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Ceftin (cefuroxime axetil) and Gentamicin (gentamicin sulfate). Common drug interactions include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease among females and acidosis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Ceftin and Gentamicin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 19 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on cefuroxime axetil and gentamicin sulfate (the active ingredients of Ceftin and Gentamicin, respectively), and Ceftin and Gentamicin (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.
How to use the study?
