Remicade and Vancomycin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Remicade (infliximab) and Vancomycin (vancomycin). Common drug interactions include granuloma skin among females and abdominal pain among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Remicade and Vancomycin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 55 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
