Januvia and Rocephin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Januvia (sitagliptin phosphate) and Rocephin (ceftriaxone sodium). Common drug interactions include oedema peripheral among females and bronchitis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Januvia and Rocephin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 84 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
