Cefuroxime and Cetamide drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Cefuroxime (cefuroxime sodium) and Cetamide (sulfacetamide sodium). Common drug interactions include alopecia among females and chronic kidney disease among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Cefuroxime and Cetamide. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 14 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
