Chlorhexidine gluconate and Rocephin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Chlorhexidine gluconate (chlorhexidine gluconate) and Rocephin (ceftriaxone sodium). Common drug interactions include toothache among females and diarrhoea among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Chlorhexidine gluconate and Rocephin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 70 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
