Gentamicin and Hectorol drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Gentamicin (gentamicin sulfate) and Hectorol (doxercalciferol). Common drug interactions include decreased appetite among females and renal failure among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Gentamicin and Hectorol. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 45 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Gentamicin?
Gentamicin has active ingredients of gentamicin sulfate. It is often used in urinary tract infection. eHealthMe is studying from 21,654 Gentamicin users. Check the latest studies of Gentamicin.

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on gentamicin sulfate and doxercalciferol (the active ingredients of Gentamicin and Hectorol, respectively), and Gentamicin and Hectorol (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.
