Gentamicin and Robitussin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Gentamicin (gentamicin sulfate) and Robitussin (guaifenesin). Common drug interactions include bipolar ii disorder among females and chronic kidney disease among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Gentamicin and Robitussin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 35 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
