Ceftriaxone and Sinemet drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Ceftriaxone (ceftriaxone sodium) and Sinemet (carbidopa; levodopa). Common drug interactions include colitis ulcerative among females and fall among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Ceftriaxone and Sinemet. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 66 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

Ceftriaxone has active ingredients of ceftriaxone sodium. It is often used in typhoid fever. eHealthMe is studying from 40,991 Ceftriaxone users. Check the latest studies of Ceftriaxone.
What is Sinemet?
Sinemet has active ingredients of carbidopa; levodopa. It is often used in parkinson's disease. eHealthMe is studying from 29,601 Sinemet users. Check the latest studies of Sinemet.
66 people who take Ceftriaxone and Sinemet together, and have interactions are studied.
