Levocarnitine and Gentamicin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Levocarnitine (levocarnitine) and Gentamicin (gentamicin sulfate). Common drug interactions include cerebellar haemorrhage among females and cardio-respiratory arrest among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Levocarnitine and Gentamicin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 16 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

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