Florinef and Rocephin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Florinef (fludrocortisone acetate) and Rocephin (ceftriaxone sodium). Common drug interactions include cardiac arrest among females and atrial fibrillation among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Florinef and Rocephin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 15 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Florinef?
Florinef has active ingredients of fludrocortisone acetate. It is often used in addison's disease. eHealthMe is studying from 3,834 Florinef users. Check the latest studies of Florinef.
What is Rocephin?
Rocephin has active ingredients of ceftriaxone sodium. It is often used in infection. eHealthMe is studying from 15,665 Rocephin users. Check the latest studies of Rocephin.
15 people who take Florinef and Rocephin together, and have interactions are studied.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on fludrocortisone acetate and ceftriaxone sodium (the active ingredients of Florinef and Rocephin, respectively), and Florinef and Rocephin (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?
